Meat an meat product exports reached €171.9 million, marking a year-on-year increase of only 2.4 %. Trade deficit on meat has been constant in Romania for several years, now reaching a value of €168.4 million in the first five months of the year. The situation could get worst in the next months as the country is confronted with an African Swine Fever outbreak that forced domestic producers to increase their imports of pork.
