In the USA/IOWA , producer prices fell slightly on Mon, 10.03. to 1.84 €/kg. Cut prices have also fallen. Slaughter numbers remain at the level reached. Forward prices for the new front month Apr.-25 have fallen to €1.70/kg due to the weak dollar exchange rate. Prices are not expected to rise again until the summer months.
Brazil: After a brief interim high, producer prices have fallen further to €1.77/kg. Weak domestic demand played a key role in this. However, expectations for 2025 remain positive.
China: At € 2.73/kg, prices are on the usual seasonal downward trend. The month of March 2025 is quoted at € 2.35/kg on the Dalian exchange; moderate price increases are only expected again in the summer months. Pork production in 2025 will remain below the previous year.

The chances of further price increases in Germany can no longer be completely dismissed.
