Romania: Romanian Swine Herd Continues Sliding
Link to report:
Animal health concerns, feed, energy, fuel prices, and labor are the major factors impacting the Romanian swine sector. Romania’s swine herd had a 5.9 percent year-on-year decline in May 2022, while pork meat imports grew by 23 percent during the first eight months of 2022. Although significantly improved in terms of the number of outbreaks, African Swine Fever (ASF) remains a significant threat for the swine producers and a factor inhibiting investment.
