Last week, the average price paid to producers of live pigs in Mato Grosso was R$ 5.88/kg, representing a 5.66% decrease compared to the previous week. This is the lowest value since June 2024, according to monitoring by the Mato Grosso Institute of Agricultural Economics (Imea). This scenario is linked to lower demand in the domestic market. Furthermore, the price of common pork carcasses was quoted at R$ 9.67/kg, a 5.47% decrease compared to the same period, mirroring the decline in live pig prices.
