Outbreaks of lumpy skin disease in Pakistan have reduced cattle availability, while monsoon floods have killed animals and restricted livestock movement. Meat prices have risen across the country, with beef at Rs700 to Rs900 per kilogram in Karachi.
Disease and flood losses shrink Pakistan's livestock supply and raise local meat prices, though the effect on global feed and livestock markets is limited.
After 356 past disease events, Live Cattle moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (54% higher; middle half -0.8% to +1.1%), and +1.1% over 20.
After 266 past disease events, Feeder Cattle moved a median +0.5% over 5 sessions (59% higher; middle half -1.1% to +1.7%), and +1.7% over 20.
