Pig price unchanged - market trend brisk

Trading is brisk as the week progresses. On the meat market, the price increases of the past week can only be implemented to a limited extent. The necessary impetus for a further increase in listings is therefore missing, even if the course of yesterday's Internet pig exchange indicated a further increase in listings. The supply of live animals remains small, fatteners quickly deliver batches due to the lack of slaughter days in the coming week. For the current week, the "Association of Producer Associations for Livestock and Meat" gives an average AutoFOM price factor (median), the "association price" of €2.33/index point (that's +/- 0 cents compared to the previous week) in a range from €2.28 to €2.38; the corresponding FOM base price is €2.33/kg slaughter weight.
