For this week, the price of live hog was RMB15.31Yuan/KG, down 2.48% compared with last week. Last weekend, hog price increased with fluctuation. Due to tight supply of hog, price increased in some areas, which increased national average price. In general, however, hog price in most areas remained stable and even declined in some areas.
