Pork Prices Increase in Eastern Thailand

As of November 3, 2026, the Chonburi Pig Farmers Cooperative, in collaboration with the National Swine Raisers Association, has implemented a price increase for live fattening pigs at the farm gate in eastern Thailand. The recommended price has risen by 2 baht per kilogram, moving the new range to 70–72 baht per kilogram, up from the previous range of 68–70 baht per kilogram. This adjustment serves as a recommended pricing guideline for cooperative members and local farmers in the eastern provinces. For residents and visitors, this increase in farm-gate prices may eventually influence the cost of pork products in local markets and restaurants across the region. While this adjustment is specific to the eastern area, market observers often monitor such trends to see if they signal broader inflationary pressures on food prices nationwide. It remains to be confirmed whether this price hike will be adopted in other regions of Thailand or if further adjustments will be necessary in the coming weeks. Consumers are advised to monitor local market prices as these changes filter through the supply chain.
