Tridge summary

The article reports a significant increase in the prices of fattening pigs in both Germany and Poland, with the price per kilogram in Poland reaching nearly PLN 10.60 net, a rise of 40 groszy from the previous week. The average price for pigs in live weight is also up by the same amount, at PLN 8.20 net per kilogram. The upward trend in prices is attributed to challenges faced by slaughterhouses in meeting demand, leading to farmers delaying deliveries to secure higher payment. Despite these high prices, open-cycle farming remains unprofitable for farmers, according to the Wielkopolska Chamber of Agriculture.
