Vietnam aims to increase pig production in 2024

As of the end of November 2023, the country's total pig population was 30.3 million, an increase of approximately 4%. The pig industry has made positive progress, although it still faces many challenges due to low pig prices, the costs of bio-secure farming and disease prevention. Pet food prices , although trending downward slightly, are still high.

The livestock industry will continue to coordinate with the Department of Animal HEALTH and relevant departments on disease prevention. The livestock industry is strengthening channels to closely monitor changes in the supply and prices of animal feed ingredients domestically and internationally. Timely measures are taken to minimize the impact on livestock production efficiency.
