Russian pork consumption hit 25kg per capita this year, which could be a 25-year high, said Yuri Kovalev, CEO of the Russian Union of Pork Producers (RUPP), in a speech at Moscow’s Pig Farming 2016 Conference.
Hungary’s Minister of Rural Development Sándor Fazekas has announced plans to boost consumption of pork in the country by some 12% in 2014. This will be achieved through a campaign focused on promoting domestically produced pork, the minister said.
