The beef market is experiencing a surge in prices for the seventh consecutive week, driven by the low animal supply and strong demand, especially from Algeria and Morocco. The rise in prices is also attributed to the aftermath of last year's drought and the epizootic haemorrhagic disease. The market is struggling to maintain sales due to the increasing cost of meat, with some buyers reducing their orders. The situation is further complicated by a decrease in the supply of animals for slaughter, caused by the mass slaughter of cows in the past two years, resulting in fewer calves for fattening and disrupting the market chain.
