Tridge summary
The survey of the cost of pork production carried out by Embrapa based on new technical coefficients showed a monthly increase in Rio Grande do Sul and Santa Catarina, while in Paraná there was a slight decline. The cost shows a decrease in relation to the same period of the previous year, which, however, have not been updated and, therefore, lose their comparative effect during 2023. It is true, however, that pig farmers continue to suffer losses, given the prices received in the pig commercialization remain below the cost of creation.
In Rio Grande do Sul, for a cost of R$7.05/kg, the selling price reached R$5.47, signaling a loss of more than 22%; in Paraná, the cost reached R$6.89 and sales R$6.74, equivalent to a charge of 2.2%; in Santa Catarina for a creation cost of R$7.13, the sale price reached R$5.86, indicating losses of 17.8%.
