Pig prices continue to decline, says AHDB
AHDB trainee analyst, Amey Brassington, said GB estimated slaughterings were up around 600 head on the previous week to total 172,600 head. Industry reports suggest that supply is slightly ahead of demand, which remains subdued.
The average carcase weight for the SPP sample for the week remained steady at 82.89kg.
In contrast to the SPP, the EU-spec APP rose slightly on the week, up 0.16p in the week ended 15 September, to finish on 151.74p/kg. The current figure is 13.99p lower than year earlier levels.
