# Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs: Hog and Pork Prices Fell in the First Week of November

> China’s average live-hog price fell 2.9% week over week in the first week of November, while pork prices at monitored markets also declined. Officials attributed the declines to ample supply and weak pork sales, with seasonal consumer demand not yet strengthening; prices were expected to fluctuate slightly in the following week.
