Export market for Other Frozen Pork Cuts in Denmark (11월, 2022)

In the first half of 2022, livestock purchase prices reached record levels, with cattle and poultry showing strong profitability, while pigs continued to pose a challenge due to high feed costs. The decline in the EU pig herd and a decrease in pork market prices have failed to stimulate production growth, with global demand and growing Chinese production contributing to a drop in EU pork exports. Despite a potential reduction in supply, leading to market price increases, high costs and external demand factors could limit price rises, and the normalization of cereal, feed, and fertilizer prices could help improve profitability, although this is beyond the control of farmers.
