The government is reviewing a plan to conditionally allow feeding pigs with leftover food, following a request from the National Food, Feed, and Livestock Association. This has been virtually banned since the outbreak of African swine fever (ASF) in September 2019. If implemented, it could bring significant changes to the feed industry and quarantine management sector of pig farms. However, the Korea Pork Producers Association cautions that the lifting of restrictions on waste food movement may lead to a decrease in auction prices due to consumer perception, and suggests the establishment of a separate distribution system.
