Figures for May 2009 indicate a 2.1% decrease in French porcine livestock compared to the previous year, with a total of 14.3 million head, 313,000 fewer than the previous year.

The decrease principally affects the number of young pigs though the number of sows and piglets has also decreased. (Original in French. Read Google translation here).
