The price of pork may rise significantly

Pig farmers justify a twenty, or even thirty percent price increase, after the feed prices jumped because of the bad harvest.

The purchase price of pork increased to 380-400 HUF per kg, but due to the more expensive feed, profit essentially disappeared from the prices. According to the farmers, in normal case, a 40 – 50 percent difference should be between the two prices – between feed and live weight prices.  (Ábrahám Ambrus, Tanács István, Népszabadság Online)
