Page 19 - Pig production Romania

Key points on pig production

 A clear distinction between professional, commercial pig production, and backyard farming, in numbers, scale of production, biosecurity
approach, feed basis and competitive performance
 The competitive performance differs strongly between Northwest European and Romanian commercial farms, among others by the scale
of production and degree of industrialisation
 Piglet production is more expensive in Romania than in the Netherlands, which however is more than compensated by lower costs in the
growing-finishing phase
