If you have a CPH for poultry then it counts for pigs too. And sheep, goats and cows.

This (http://www.smallholder.co.uk/news/927599.registering_a_holding/) article is pretty informative.

Thanks. The bit I was confused about was how to go about getting a Agricultural Holding or CPH number. DEFRA's website doesn't help a lot regarding that.
