The Pig and Product Development Policy Committee (Pig Board) met and approved the (draft) additional pig price stabilization project to reduce production capacity by reducing the number of domestic sows to be in line with market demand. The main goal is to reduce 78,571 sows on 230 large pig farms that have over 1,000 sows to maintain market balance and solve the problem of losses for pig farmers. The Ministry of Agriculture and Cooperatives, through the Department of Livestock Development, has requested cooperation from large pig farm operators to join the project to stabilize pig prices and reduce excess supply from the system.
In addition, measures and activities to monitor disease outbreaks in pigs, both proactively and reactively, have been continuously implemented, and the results have been expanded to disease-free pig farmers to build confidence in trading partner countries.
