The article highlights the stability of half-carcass pig prices in Germany and Poland, with the rate remaining at EUR 2.00 per kilogram since November 30. This translates to PLN 9.42/kg in Poland, with domestic procurement paying farmers an average of PLN 9.25 and PLN 7.18 per kilogram of fattening pig in class E and live weight, respectively.
