EU Near Record Pork Prices in 2012
EU - The EU has seen record beef prices and near-record pork prices throughout most of 2012. According to Rabobank Food & Agribusiness Research and Advisory, similar price levels have not been seen in the EU since the severe disease outbreaks of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) in late 2000 and foot-and-mouth disease in early 2001.
