The inaugural meeting of the new Pig Roundtable was chaired today (Wednesday, April 28) by Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine Martin Heydon.
Key stakeholders participated in the meeting, including representatives from the farming and processing sectors, Teagasc, Bord Bia, and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
Coming from a base of €330 million export value in 2010, the pig sector has shown “exceptional value growth”, according to the Department of Agriculture.
Notwithstanding the problems caused by Covid-19 in the first half of 2020, the sector saw export values up 0.2% year-on-year, coming in at just over €893 million – an increase of 270% in value over the past decade.
