Thai Farm-Gate Pork Prices Increase by 4 Baht per Kilogram
The National Swine Raisers Association of Thailand has announced a price hike for live pigs at the farm level, effective October 19, 2026.
According to a report by Khaosod Online, the National Swine Raisers Association of Thailand, in collaboration with the Chonburi Swine Raisers Cooperative, has officially announced an increase in the farm-gate price of live pigs. Effective October 19, 2026, the price will rise by 4 baht per kilogram from the previous rate.
This adjustment is expected to push the recommended price for live pigs in the eastern region to between 66 and 68 baht per kilogram. The increase applies to members of the cooperative and independent pig farmers across the country.
For residents and visitors in Thailand, this change in farm-gate pricing may eventually influence retail costs for pork products in local markets and supermarkets. While the farm-gate price is set, the final impact on consumer prices at the point of sale remains to be confirmed, as retail pricing is often subject to additional market factors, distribution costs, and individual vendor policies. Those monitoring the cost of living or food expenses in Thailand should observe how these wholesale adjustments translate to consumer-facing prices in the coming weeks.
