Weekly Overview: Sow Stall Ban Disrupts EU Markets in an Unexpected Way

2013-02-11 01:00:00| ThePigSite - Industry News

ANALYSIS - EU pig markets are not working in the way predicted after the sow stall ban came into operation in January: pig prices have not increased - and are even falling - in the UK, where compliance with the new rules is 100 per cent and yet is a long way off self-sufficiency in pork. Where is all this pig meat coming from to meet UK demand? Under different trading circumstances, certainly, USDA is reported to have resolved trade disputes worth billions of dollars to US agriculture. Investigations are underway in Denmark into a recent sharp rise in the prevalence of MRSA in its pigs.
