There is currently a lively interest in buying animals ready for slaughter on the slaughter pig market. The supply of livestock continues to decline. This was also evident at today's pig exchange, where all lots found buyers at a higher price. Despite the improved marketing opportunities, the significantly increased feed costs are also having a negative impact on the economic situation of the pig farmers. Costs there have risen by almost 40% since the beginning of the Corona crisis. Accordingly, the situation remains tense for many companies. At today's Internet pig exchange, 1345 pigs in 9 lots out of a total of 1,345 offered pigs in 9 lots were sold at an average price of 1.62 euros/kg SG in a range of 1.55 to 1.75 euros.
