EU - Spring is awakening on the European slaughter pig market.All in all, quotations appear to range from unchanged to slightly positive. The quantities of pigs for slaughter on offer are not too abundant in most of the countries but in spite of this minor setback, brisk demand is being met.Therefore, the long-awaited signal from Germany has finally come to many market participants. The German leading quotation went ahead on Wednesday, going up 2 cents to a corrected price level of 1.49 per kg slaughter weight. The same applies to prices in Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, Austria and Ireland.

　　春天正在惶溲沉睡的欧洲生猪屠宰市场。总的来说，报价宛然从毫无变幻的趋势转向轻微上扬。尽管遭受了本次的小挫折，但是由于绝大多数成员国的出栏生猪供应数量都不算太多，因此迎来旺盛的需求。诸多市场参加者终于等到期盼已久的德国信号。德国先行报价在周三上涨，向上增长2欧分，按照屠宰重，修正后的报价为1.49欧元/千克。同样的情景也发生在了西班牙、荷兰、比利时、奥地利和爱尔兰。
