Thailand: Thai Pork Supplies Disrupted by ASF

ASF outbreak was officially confirmed in Thailand on January 11, 2022. Swine production is expected to decline by 35-40 percent in 2022, causing an upward price pressure on pork meat which is expected to increase around 30 percent compared to 2021. An export ban on live swine was immediately imposed by the government, but the government and farmers still object to the imports of pork meat.
