The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) has reported a decrease in global meat prices in October, except for lamb, as compared to the previous month and year. This decline is attributed to falling pork and beef prices, primarily due to reduced demand and import restrictions in key markets like China and the United States, respectively. Pork prices are also under pressure from the ongoing impact of China's restrictions on German quotations. Beef prices are experiencing a downward trend, despite a drop in supplies from Australia, due to weak demand in the United States and increased exports from South America. Poultry prices have also seen a slight decline due to reduced orders from China and Saudi Arabia. However, sheep meat prices have risen, driven by stable demand and limited export deliveries, especially from Australia.
