An increase in domestic production, a fall in prices and the introduction of an import duty on pork led to a decrease in Russian imports of this meat to minimum values.

Analysis of trade figures shows little change in the volume of pork traded between the 28 EU Member States in 2015.The precise trend is unclear due to some inconsistencies between data from different countries.

After Lithuania a week ago, we flew to Russia, writes Jim Long President – CEO Genesus Inc. Our Observations: Currently due to economic sanctions, European Union and North American countries cannot ship pork or live market hogs to Russia but Brazil is able to. The economic sanctions, by limiting pork imports has supported prices for pigs in Russia. Profits per hog are between $75 - $100 US dollars per head. It’s a good time for the pig producers! In our travels in Russia, the sentiment would be that economic sanctions on importing of market hogs and pork would last a minimum of one year to up to 4 years. Certainly, anyone would be foolish.

During the first three months of 2015, Russia imported less than half as much pork as in the same period last year. This was largely attributed to the ban on imports from the EU, Canada and the US, among others. Volumes were less than 30 per cent of their level in the first quarter of 2013, before the initial ban on EU pork was imposed. Brazil was the major supplier, accounting for over three-quarters of the total, but even it shipped 22 per cent less pork to Russia. Ukraine and Chile were the only other countries supplying over 1,000 tonnes; last year 12 countries provided at least this amount and the year before the number was 14. Despite further. Read more...
