2022 has been a challenging year for the Polish pork industry. Rising energy and feed prices, as well as the ongoing African swine fever (ASF) epidemic, are critical influences.

Despite record wholesale prices in the Polish pig market, the profitability of the industry leaves much to be desired. As a result, the number of pigs declined to 9.6 million and the number of sows remained at a record low of 600,000. Over the past three years, the number of pig farms in Poland has been halved.
