IRELAND - Official pig price quotes remain around the €1.70c/kg mark, but the level of expectation among pig producers for a price rise is heating up.The German pig price increased again last week, and now stands at €1.80c/kg – a realistic target for where Irish pig prices should be, according to IFA Pigs Chairman Tom Hogan.Commenting on the stagnant Irish prices over the past few weeks, in the light of significant and consecutive increases across the main European pig producers, Mr Hogan said he was disappointed, but not surprised.

雖然愛爾蘭官方豬肉報(bào)價(jià)仍然在1.7c/kg的關(guān)口徘徊，但是愛爾蘭的豬肉生產(chǎn)商們卻對(duì)豬價(jià)上漲的期望變得越來越熱切。根據(jù)愛爾蘭農(nóng)場主協(xié)會(huì)豬肉委員會(huì)主席湯姆·霍根(Tom Hogan)表示，德國豬價(jià)在上周再次上漲，目前站在1.8c/kg的價(jià)位，這也是愛爾蘭豬價(jià)應(yīng)可達(dá)到的現(xiàn)實(shí)目標(biāo)?；舾飨谡勂疬^去幾周的愛爾蘭豬價(jià)時(shí)稱，考慮到整個(gè)歐洲主要養(yǎng)豬國豬價(jià)連續(xù)大幅上漲，而愛爾蘭豬價(jià)卻停滯不前，對(duì)此，他并不感到意外。
