I’m not saying that taking pig to market is now the answer, that ship has probably sailed long ago. How many markets used to sell pigs? There has been a few new faces turn up in Leek in the last few weeks, doubling the usual numbers. It looks like other markets have seen a similar increase ( I know it’s just a drop in the ocean as far as numbers)The one newcomer has been selling pigs at every market he can get to with weaners, fat pigs and cull sows, they just have to go he says.
I suppose what I’m trying to ask is who benefits from selling direct? My guess is it’s the processors who get the most from it. Also who will have the confidence to sign up having seen how you can be treated? How will things change in the future to make things better for us, the producers?
