Expanding pig herd in Vietnam
The price of live pig has reached 52,000 VND per kg, the farmer can get 10,000-12,000 VND per kg of profit. The price of pork is 90,000-95,000 VND per kg and the pork consumption demand is also increasing. This situation is pushing the farmers to expand pig herd. According to estimates of Dong Nai Livestock Association, the number of pig in this province is 1.4 billion, an increase of 200,000 pigs from the previous year.
