Pig industry meets for strategy talks


PIG producers, processors and retailers this week held a two-day "summit" to devise a strategy to take the industry forward.


Delegates agreed an action plan which highlighted developing the quality standard mark to cover processed products, such as sausages and pies, as one of its main priorities. At the moment


the mark covers only bacon, pork and ham.


Other points included encouraging the development of new products to make better use of less popular cuts of the pig carcass and looking at whether cost savings could be made by integrating


the various elements of the supply chain.
