Chamber of Agriculture: thee appearance of the Swine Fever in China can help the situation of EU pig farmers

The European Union’s and Hungarian pig farmers may benefit from the appearance of African swine fever in China in the short term – Éder Tamás. the National Vice President of the National Chamber of Agriculture (NAK) responsible for Food Industry told Kossuth Rádió on Tuesday.

Éder Tamás added that China could lose 10, 20 or even 30 percent of pig meat production due to the spread of African swine fever. Events in China are affecting the entire world market, as China has half of the world’s pig population and China is the world’s largest producer and consumer of pork. (MTI)
