Poland- Slow growth of swine population

In 2008 the Polish swine population reached its lowest levels in 40 years. The latest census carried out last year shows that although the population has grown, the total increase has only been by 0.1% compared to the previous year. However, the number of breeding sows has increased by 6%.

Since 2007 Poland has become a net importer of pig meat.
