The Vall Companys Group analyzes global pork trade

Before an audience of more than 150 sector professionals, Morera examined the main drivers of global trade, how geopolitics is affecting and may affect it in the short, medium, and long term, as well as aspects related to biosecurity. Morera also reviewed how the new agreement between the Mercosur countries and the European Union may affect the pork sector.

"In the short and medium term, the agreement with Mercosur shouldn't worry us. But we must observe how this open door can evolve in the long term", Morera stated. He also referred to the European production and regulatory situation: "We are very demanding of ourselves with our own production in Europe, and we must see if, as a community market, we are prepared to carry out controls both at origin and upon arrival".

The event was opened by the First Deputy Mayor of Vic, Bet Piella, and by the President of the Vic Fish Market and the Gepork Group, Josep Puigdollers. The meat and livestock entrepreneur also highlighted the importance of biosecurity as one of the main factors of competitiveness at the sectoral level. "Animal health will be the guideline that will determine the future of the sector; biosecurity is crucial," emphasized Josep Puigdollers. Also attending the event were the Secretary of Food of the Generalitat of Catalonia, Rosa Cubel, and the Director General of Livestock, Rosa Altisent.
