Spain: With Livestock Production on the Rebound, Portugal Chases Asian Markets

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Following the economic crisis, Portugal’s livestock production has bounced back and is expected to continue expanding during 2019. In late January 2019, Portugal shipped its first containers of pork to China and exports are expected to continue growing in 2019. Modernization and increased adoption of technology has improved the performance of Portuguese swine and cattle farms and restructured its domestic livestock sector. In addition, Portuguese domestic demand for high quality beef is on the rise.
