The number of pig slaughterings compared to last week has decreased. However, domestic business is still difficult because some sections are to be set off with difficulty.

The pig prices in Europe have remained unchanged in Spain, the Netherlands, Denmark, France, Austria and Germany. The Danish price has been corrected to 1.52 EUR/kg SG. The Mäster from Italy with corrected 1.80 EUR/kg SG obtains the highest price. In Poland a price rise of 2 corrected cents has been reached.

Trend: Due to expected shortage of slaughter pigs, one can't help but expect a friendly tendency in the pig market.
