The article reports a significant increase in the price of pork in Hanoi, Vietnam, with live pork priced at 64,000 VND/kg, a rise of 5,000 VND from the start of the month. Prices have surged by 15,000-30,000 VND/kg across various markets, causing concern for small traders. The price hike is attributed to the high cost of Chinese pigs and low export volumes, amidst stable gasoline prices and unchanged live pig and animal feed prices. The situation has led to concerns about profitability and has driven traders to reduce pork imports. Despite the increased cost of live pigs, the high cost of animal feed continues to pose a challenge for farmers.
