The Philippine Department of Agriculture approved a 60-day suspension of certain fresh, chilled and frozen pork, carcass and offal imports on November 7, 2026. The move follows a surge in imports, rising frozen pork inventories and falling farmgate pork prices, and officials have not ruled out extending it.
Cutting Philippine pork imports reduces demand for global pork and removes a buyer from export markets, which is bearish for hog prices in exporting countries. Weaker local hog margins could also trim pork production and feed demand over time.
