EU-27: Livestock and Products. Export Subsidies for Raw Pork Reinstituted, 2007. GAIN Report Number E47104

摘要

On November 29, 2007, the EC reinstituted export refunds for raw pork in an attempt to support waning pork exports which result from the unfavorable/U.S. $ exchange rate. EU pork farmers are suffering severely from high feed costs, even as EU pork prices are still at the 5-year average level. EU feed costs are the result of a poor EU grain harvest and the impossibility to import cheap feed ingredients as a result of the EU GM policy.
