The National Pork Board says there are growing export opportunities in Vietnam and the Philippines. A report funded by the Pork Checkoff and USDA’s Foreign Agricultural Service shows African swine fever has impacted both countries’ pork industries and supply chains prompting demand growth in imported pork over the next decade.
“The annual Pork Checkoff producer survey identified diversification of U.S. pork exports as a top priority,” said Norman Bessac, vice president of international marketing for the Checkoff, quoted in a National Pork Board news release.
