On the European market fresh legs are sold at slightly increasing prices. Shoulders and production meat are sold at slightly increasing prices as well. The price level of other cuts remains unchanged. Loins are sold well, whereas now collars are out of season. Exports of bacon products to the market in the UK follow a fine demand at stable prices. On third-country markets, the situation remains unchanged and stable. (Sources, Danish Crown, Tican, Danish Agriculture and Food Council)
Pig quote will be increased before Christmas
This year by the end of November and the beginning of December, Danish Crown as something new will raise the pig quote by three Eurocents per kg. It is due to Christmas and the holidays when pigs will be put forward to avoid postponements in the beginning of 2012, and also because there are more sales of Christmas products. As of week 46, the weight limit will be lowered by 2kg to 85.9kg and as of week 47, further lowered by 2kg to 83.9kg. In week 1 of 2012, the weight limit will then be raised by 4kg.
