According to traders and purchasing businesses, the market is waiting for new signals about domestic demand during the April 30 – May 1 holiday. If purchasing power increases, the price of live pigs may be adjusted slightly next week.

 

At current prices, farmers should consider selling a portion of their herd to minimize risks if prices fluctuate in the future. Pigs weighing 100-110kg should be sold early to avoid additional costs.

Traders and processors need to quickly finalize contracts to ensure supply before prices may fluctuate at the end of the month. Planning for imports in the second quarter is also necessary to stabilize input materials.

The Hanoi People's Committee has issued Official Dispatch No. 1495 requesting units to focus on synchronously and effectively implementing measures to prevent and control livestock and poultry diseases.

In the document, the Hanoi People's Committee requested the People's Committees of districts, towns and cities to prioritize the allocation of resources and funds to comprehensively, drastically and effectively implement the issued animal disease prevention and control plans.

Local People's Committees must also ensure that vaccination of livestock is carried out according to the general plan, and at the same time, additional vaccinations must be given to newly emerging herds to reach a minimum rate of 80% of the total herd that needs to be vaccinated.

 

In addition, it is necessary to strictly monitor the gathering, buying and selling of animals and animal products of unclear origin. In particular, it is necessary to thoroughly handle the acts of transporting and trading smuggled animals across the border.

People's Committees of districts, towns and cities also need to step up strict inspection of disease prevention and food safety at slaughterhouses, processing, transporting and consuming animals and animal products.
