CHINA-INTERNAL: ECONOMY-PORK PRICES

 In April 2016, Chinese wholesale pork prices climbed to over RMB 26 per kilogram, an increase of over 43 percent year-on-year and around 8 percent higher than in March 2016. The high pork prices were reflected in China’s consumer price index (CPI)—a measure of price changes in household-purchased consumer goods and services— which showed consumer prices up 2.3 percent in March from a year earlier. The pork price inflation is similar to levels seen in October 2011, when pork prices also rose to more than RMB 26 per kilogram after depressed hog prices and swine disease in 2010 led to a decline in China’s hog inventory.
