The listing to the Breton Pork Market (MPB), suspended since August 10, resumed Tuesday shortly before 12 am 30, but without the Cooperl buyers and Bigard, whose refusal to pay the recommended price of € 1.40 the kilo had triggered the crisis. Highly sought by breeders who are struggling to manage their stocks of unsold animals, the resumption began shortly before 12 am to 30 MPB, which represents only 15% of sales of weekly pigs but fixed the reference price nationally . The “stop price” (price floor) below which sales do not come down was set at 1.371 euro, said the authorities in that market, just before the session begins.
” Bigard and Cooperl will again be absent. This is a very big mistake on their part, “because” they signed the contract agreement “and have” a moral contract with the farmers, “said the president of the Brazilian Daniel Picart shortly before the resumption of trading. “We’ll have a normal market,” but “we will remain unsold” and “we have no solution for them,” he added. Some 62 000 pigs were to be offered for sale for Tuesday’s trading session: almost 50,000 unsold the previous Thursday and 12 000 Monday, August 10, Monday and Thursday are the usual trading days. This special meeting was announced Monday at the end of a crisis meeting at the Ministry of Agriculture.

The Minister of Agriculture Stéphane Le Foll n ‘ no “acceptable” the brutal withdrawal of the Breton Pork Market (MPB) of certain logging companies, then it must meet with representatives of the Cooperl group Bigard Tuesday and Wednesday. “Having to retire abruptly market was not the solution that was acceptable to the extent that we need to discuss, to see what problems and treat them,” said the minister when asked about RTL.
Monday, the minister met representatives of farmers and Brazilian officials at a crisis meeting, which were not represented these two logging companies. “All the other players who were around the table yesterday spoke of their problems, the fact of not being there was a collective responsibility issue,” assured the minister. “After, I know that there are problems specific to Cooperl and side of Bigard, so we will discuss it too. I respect everyone and I try to ensure that everyone gets back to the table, “he said.
Faced with opposition attacks on the lack of responsiveness of the government facing the farming crisis, Stéphane Le Foll responded by asking, “What they have done for 10 years? “” Between 2002 and 2012 we lost 100,000 tons of pig produced in France. Meanwhile Germany from 4 to 5.2 million tonnes and Spain from 3.2 to 3.6 million tonnes, and it continues to grow. It was at that time that the dropout is done, “he recalled.
Reforming pricing pork
Beyond recovery trade in Plérin, the question of reforming the fixing of pork price is now officially asked. For William Roue of INAPORC (swine inter national), “a number of discussions will engage, as early as next week, for the establishment of an evolution of the pricing system, including adaptation partial operation of the Breton Pork Market “. The minister also insisted Monday on several points that require the implementation of a strategy “on the issue price, based on the valuation of the origin of meat,” or work on promotions. August 27 will be held a working meeting with professionals and distribution “to work on the practical modalities of implementation of the September promotions.” That same day also held a meeting with Plérin market players to “consider more reassuring marketing tracks,” as contracting.
