Vietnam is experiencing a significant increase in pig prices as the year draws to a close, with prices in several provinces reaching 65,000 VND/kg. The price surge is attributed to increased purchasing power and consumption demand. However, concerns have been raised about the potential importation of live pigs from other countries due to the price gap. Despite this, Vietnam's meat exports have seen a slight increase in volume but a decrease in value compared to the previous year, with Hong Kong being the largest export market. On the other hand, meat imports into Vietnam have risen both in volume and value, with India being the primary supplier.
