There was no change to Irish pig prices on Friday last, following a 4c/kg reduction reported across the market the previous week. Producers are reporting a range of prices in the Republic, in particular, under the Rosderra graded pricing system. The average pig price for pigs slaughtered this week in the Republic of Ireland now stands between €1.74/kg and €1.78/kg, although some farmers are securing prices above this average in factories in the North.
