Canada's pig population continues to grow
Also, the number of pig farms in Canada reported an annual increase of 1% to 7,880 units.
There was an increase of the breeding herd by 1% in July, according to the corresponding period in the previous year, and it reached 1.3 million heads.
This increase was driven by a 4% rise in young pigs to 2.5 million heads.
Furthermore, there was also a rise of 2% in slaughter pig numbers from the previous year, which, according to the Senior analyst at AHDB, "would suggest a continued rise in slaughterings during the third quarter of the year."
