German prices flatlined at €1.346 per kilo slaughterweight but regional variation were noted by analysts at Community Interest Pig Holders (Schweine Net ISN).

Last week, signals from some stakeholders exaggerated problems in the market, dismissed by analysts as ‘bad mouthing’.

Schweine Net ISN said pigs are in good supply and marketable across Europe, with no reason for price decreases this week.

However, there are question marks over Austrian supply and demand is strong to the south.
