The market for cuttings

Purchase prices for pigs of November continued to fall and even somewhat accelerated this fall in the first decade. As a result of the monitoring of prices of pork market, the average mark on pigs of slaughtered terms has decreased by more than 3% compared with the previous week.

In early November, the purchasing price range for live pork fell to 43-44.5 UAH/kg. Although the upper and lower boundaries dropped by 1 UAH/kg. Already during the 45th week from different parts of Ukraine, lower prices came from both the processors and the pork producers.

The purchasers, in their turn, explain such a situation by exceeding the available volumes of commodity stock of demand for it. Given this, representatives of the meat processing industry believe that next week the maximum price tag can be compared to the "barrier" price level (44 UAH/kg), while the lower price threshold will drop to 42 UAH/kg.

Thus, operators noted significant weakening of demand both from the end user and from the meat-packing plants. At the same time, if the sluggish purchasing activity of the population is explained by seasonal factors (increase of expenses for communal services, domestic slaughter of cattle and poultry, collection of mushrooms and fishing), then the change in the mood of meat and sausage producers is associated with a partial reorientation of cheaper raw materials (chicken, imported pork fat and ice cream pork in the elements).

On the other hand, the domestic price has fallen below import price this week, which in response to low volatility fluctuations in the European market during October and early November stood at 44 UAH / kg. At the same time, from producers of pork, more and more often, there are remarks that the current price in the face of increased feed costs raises the question of the recoupment of production costs.

It should be noted that in the beginning of autumn players of the market did not expect a fall in prices below the "old" minimum. Therefore, such a change in the situation and the acceleration of the fall in prices even disrupted operators somewhat. However, given the latter, individual meat processors do not rule out a more rapid restoration of procurement prices as they approach the winter holidays.
