Since export volumes have fallen sharply, it has become a difficult task to sell the pork supply. Not only is less pork being imported into China, less pork is also being exported to countries such as Thailand, the Philippines and Vietnam due to lockdowns related to the corona crisis. 

In addition, due to African swine fever (ASF) in the German pig herd, Thailand has now stopped the import of German pork for a period of at least 90 days. This creates increasing pressure on the European market. Domestic demand cannot currently match the ample supply. Last Wednesday (August 4) has already significantly lost its German VEZG ranking. The German ISN price comparator shows that the downward trend continues in the most important pig countries in Europe.
