The article discusses the current state of the German fattening pig quotation, which is driven by the local market's self-sufficiency due to reduced production. Despite the quotation being 2 euros, the recent trade put pigs at 2.10 euros. In contrast, southern European countries are experiencing stagnant or decreasing prices. Additionally, global markets, including the United States, Brazil, and China, are trending downward, with the anticipated demand from China yet to materialize. Vion's increase is slightly behind the rise in the Dutch pork market, raising concerns about demand, especially from the English market, as it remains uncertain, especially for special cuts.
