* Benefiting from the Law on Animal Husbandry, the pig farming structure is shifting: The Law on Animal Husbandry (2020) requires that from January 1, 2025, localities will have to relocate livestock farms out of residential areas and areas where livestock farming is not allowed, or will be forced to cease operations. Therefore, the livestock farming structure is shifting from small-scale households to professional livestock farms and large enterprises. According to the Department of Animal Husbandry, currently, small-scale farmers only account for about 30-35% of the pig production structure nationwide.
Pig prices have started to increase again since the end of 2023 and are currently hovering around VND65,000/kg due to a decrease in pig supply. In 2023, pig farmers, especially small-scale farmers, are quite hesitant to restock due to the continuous decrease in pig prices and high animal feed prices.
In addition, the reappearance of African swine fever has also affected the psychology of livestock farmers. In 2024, pork prices are forecast to remain high until the end of the year, animal feed prices tend to decrease, this is an opportunity for livestock businesses to improve profits.
