NORTH AMERICA - The Chair of the Saskatchewan Pork Development Board says, as North American meat and poultry production increases in response to low feed costs, the pork industry will become increasingly dependant on exports, writes Bruce Cochrane.Florian Possberg, the Chair of Sask Pork, says, an anticipated price crash in the fall of 2016 didn't materialize so, while the pork industry didn't have a great year, prices in 2016 were good enough that a lot of producers made modest positive incomes.

　　布鲁斯·科克伦(Bruce Cochrane)写道，据加拿大萨斯喀彻温省(Saskatchewan)猪肉业务发展委员会主席称，由于饲料成本较低，北美肉类与家禽产量随之增长，猪肉行业将越来越依赖出口。萨斯喀彻温省猪肉业务发展委员会主席Florian Possberg说：“分析师曾预料价格在2016年秋季下跌，然而其并未发生，虽然2016年对猪肉行业不是最幸福的一年，但是2016年的猪价也足以让许多生产者获得相当大的利润了。”
