Ms. Tran Thi Nga, owner of a pig farm in Tan Yen hamlet, Tan Phu commune, said: Currently, the farm has more than 300 pigs weighing over 100 kg/pig. In recent days, the price of live pigs on the market has been increasing, so she is not in a hurry to sell them. However, according to a contract with a slaughterhouse owner in Nghia Dan district, this morning she sold 22 pigs at 43,000 VND/kg, which was only 22,000 VND/kg half a month ago.

Ms. Nga added: In Tan Ky area, there are about 10 pig farms, but due to the sharp drop in pig prices in recent months, most of the farms no longer raise pigs, so when the pig price increases, there are no pigs for sale. For her, raising pigs is her profession, so even if the price drops, she still accepts raising pigs, so when the pig price increases, she sells pigs. According to Ms. Nga, with the current pig price, pig farmers have made a profit. Currently, she is continuing to invest in raising 900 more piglets, priced at 1 million VND/pig, weighing 7 kg/pig.

According to research at livestock farms in the province, it is known that the price of live pigs is increasing, commonly from 42,000 - 44,000 VND/kg. However, many farm owners are worried about whether this is a virtual price increase or not, because there are days when the price increases by 2 - 3 times, making farmers feel uneasy.

Pork prices have also increased dramatically in rural markets in recent days. Ms. Nguyen Thi Huong, a meat buyer at Roc market in Trung Thanh commune (Yen Thanh) said: 10 days ago, pork butt cost 60,000 VND/kg, but now it has increased to 80,000 - 85,000 VND/kg, other types of meat: 3-layer, ribs... have also increased compared to before. According to Ms. Huong, the increase in meat prices is due to the increase in live pig prices in recent days./.
