Live pig prices in Ha Tinh, Vietnam, are reported at VND 44,000–46,000 per kg, with one cooperative recently selling more than 60 pigs for VND 43,000 per kg. Producers say higher feed and disease-prevention costs combined with low hog prices are causing losses; one cooperative estimates it needs VND 53,000–55,000 per kg to break even.
Loss-making hog production can constrain herd maintenance and future feed demand, while high feed costs are intensifying the pressure on farmers. The report does not establish a new cause for the price decline, but persistent losses could eventually reduce pork supply.
