EU - At over 2.3 million tonnes, EU pork export volume grew by a third on the year during 2016.Tightening supplies in the latter half of the year elevated pig prices, counteracting the poor prices seen at the start of the year. Hence overall, value was up in line with volume, at €5.2 billion.Shipments to the growing Far East markets were key to boosting the EU’s export performance last year. Chinese volumes were up 86 per cent to almost 990 thousand tonnes, and there were also more modest increases in shipments to Japan and South Korea of 9 per cent and 16 per cent respectively.

　　欧盟2016年猪肉出口量比去年同期水平增长了三分之一，超过230公吨。2016下半年供应紧缩导致猪价上涨，弥补了年初低迷的价格。总体来说，猪肉出口价值与数量齐头并进，达到52亿欧元。向日益扩大的远东市场出口是去年欧盟出口成绩增长的关键。出口到中国的猪肉数量增长86%，几乎达到99万公吨，运往日本和韩国的猪肉数量也在稳健增长，分别为9%和16%。
