The per capita pork consumption in China is projected to gradually increase from 2024 to 2028, starting at 39.02 kg in 2024 and reaching 39.56 kg in 2028. This represents a stable upward trend, although the growth in volume per capita is relatively modest year-on-year. In 2023, the per capita consumption stood lower than the figures forecasted for 2024, indicating a recovery or increase from previous years.

Future trends to watch for include:

Changes in consumer preferences, potentially driven by rising health concerns or shifts to alternative protein sources.
Impact of domestic policies and global pork trade dynamics on availability and prices.
Technological and logistical advancements in pork production and distribution.
