Farm-Gate Pork Prices Rise 2 Baht/Kg Nationwide
Thailand's farm-gate pork prices increased by 2 baht per kilogram nationwide on November 9, driven by a 12 baht per bag surge in animal feed costs. The pig farmer network announced the hike, with eastern and northeastern regions pricing live pigs at 72-73 baht per kilogram. The rise follows a 51% jump in domestic feed corn prices after the Commerce Ministry set new purchase prices for the 2026/2027 crop year.
Farm-gate pork prices have risen another 2 baht per kilogram across all regions, effective today. The pig farmer network — comprising the National Swine Raisers Association, the Northeastern Swine Raisers Association, the Upper Central Swine Raisers Association for Commerce, the Southern Swine Traders Association, and the Chonburi Swine Raisers Cooperative — announced to members and farmers that live pig farm-gate prices for November 9, 2026, increased by 2 baht per kilogram compared to the previous week, reflecting the price adjustment trend for the week. As a result, today's farm-gate live pig prices: the Western region remained stable, the Eastern region at 72-73 baht, the Northeastern region at 72 baht. The farm-gate pork price adjustment stems from animal feed prices rising another 6 baht from last week, a total of 12 baht per bag (30 kg), resulting from factory-gate corn prices for animal feed adjusting upward 51% to 12.15 baht from the previously negotiated 9.80 baht, or 22%, before the Commerce Ministry's announcement on domestic feed corn purchase prices for the 2026/2027 crop year.
