The Netherlands leads in global export share of live swine over 50 kg, accounting for 21.11% in 2023, despite a slight decline of 1.0% year-on-year. China follows with 16.39%, and Spain at 11.43%, showing minor increases. Notable growth occurred in smaller markets like Romania, Ukraine, and Greece due to high year-on-year percentage increases, although their total share remains limited. Countries like Denmark and Germany saw significant declines in export shares, reflecting broader regional challenges. Over five years, these trends show a shifting landscape, with Eastern European countries making gains as traditional Western exporters face declines.
Looking forward, increased demand from Asia could reshape export dynamics, particularly if nations invest in expanding their livestock sectors to meet regional consumption needs. Climate change's impact on agriculture and livestock, as well as trade policy modifications, could further alter global export shares in the future. Observing growth in emerging markets and shifts in consumer preferences toward sustainable sources will be pivotal in forecasting long-term trends.
