According to livestock businesses, consumption demand in the South has not fully recovered since the beginning of the week, however the market's upward trend reflects that buying sentiment is gradually improving.

With an increase of 1,000 - 2,000 VND/kg nationwide, the price of live pigs is currently fluctuating between 46,000 - 51,000 VND/kg. Experts assess that the market is moving into a positive adjustment phase as demand for food processing is expected to increase sharply from the end of November.

The supply to the people remains stable, but large farms are carefully reviewing the sales progress to keep up with actual demand. It is forecasted that in the next two weeks, if purchasing power from processing enterprises and retail systems increases, the price of live pigs is likely to establish a new level.

The People's Committees of communes and wards are assigned to disseminate and propagate the new regulations to livestock organizations and households in the area; at the same time, coordinate with the Department of Agriculture and Environment and related units to develop livestock farming in the right direction, exploiting the maximum potential of the locality while still ensuring compliance with the law and density limits.
