Pig prices continued to rise this week and are currently quoted at 1.75 euros/kg SG. The development is supported in particular by the low supply of live animals and the simultaneous increase in demand. At the same time, the imminent lifting of many anti-corona measures gives hope that trade, especially in the meat market, can gain momentum again. The willingness to sell is currently low, many producers are holding their animals back to take further possible supplements with them. At today's Internet pig exchange, significant premiums could be achieved again. At the auction of the Internet Schweinebörse this Friday, 1,382 pigs in 10 lots out of 1,382 offered pigs in 10 lots were sold at an average price of 1.99 €/kgSG (that is + 21 cents to the last auction). The trading range today was €1.91 to €2.03.
