Pork prices saw a continuous increase during China's National Day holidays from October 1 to 7, with the national average price rising nearly 2 yuan ($0.28) per kilogram, driven by consumption enthusiasm and the reduced market supply of hogs.
Experts noted that the increase in pork prices since July this year is expected to continue to slightly drive up the year-on-year growth of the country's consumer price index (CPI), but with the end of holidays, the rise in prices will slow down.
