According to traders, the reason for the drop in pork prices is due to slow consumption in the market, while the supply from farms and households remains stable. The price drop is putting pressure on farmers' profits, especially in the context of high feed and transportation costs.

The Agriculture and Environment Newspaper reported that at the forum discussing solutions to reduce livestock farming costs and stabilize meat supply taking place on the morning of October 7, many businesses proposed solutions.

Mr. Hoang Nam Trung - General Director of HanoPhavico Animal Feed Joint Stock Company - said that in the third quarter and the first 9 months of 2025, the output of pig feed, especially feed for sows and piglets, tended to decrease, while chicken feed increased sharply in the broiler segment. The amount of imported raw materials for the animal feed industry remained the same as last year, but the import price at the port decreased.

According to Mr. Trung, the animal feed industry currently has many opportunities as the consumer market expands, raw material prices are expected to stabilize from the fourth quarter of 2025 to mid-2026, along with the increasingly large and concentrated scale of livestock farming.

However, this industry also faces many challenges such as fierce competition between businesses, complicated disease developments and strong fluctuations in livestock prices, creating great pressure on production and consumption.

“To optimize productivity and profit in livestock farming, it is necessary to synchronize many factors as shown in the picture above. First of all, clear cost accounting helps determine accurate profits: Profit = Revenue - Cost. In which, revenue depends on the weight sold and the selling price, and costs include: fixed costs (barns, labor) and variable costs (breeding animals, feed, veterinary medicine, electricity and water).

Livestock productivity is mainly influenced by breeds, feed and management. Good breeds determine growth potential; feed ensures nutrition to help animals stay healthy and grow quickly; management must ensure the following factors: biosecurity, drinking water and temperature, housing and stocking density, and strict veterinary control,” Mr. Trung noted.
