1. Introduction
The pork chain is one out of a set of 13 value chains selected to be impulsed by the government, for which a series of sectorial policies have been defined in order to strengthen, expand and articulate the productive structure of the country, increasing the added value and the technological content of the Uruguayan production. In particular, its potentials and restrictions were analyzed to increase its production and add value to it, seeking strategic objectives and measures to raise the above mentioned restrictions and exploit its potentials1. This report aims to analyze the recent evolution and the perspectives of the pork sector in Uruguay, as well as analyzing the world market and its projections. To such effects, the report is structured in the following way. The first section presents the main characteristics of the sector in Uruguay; secondly, the structure of the productive chain is examined as well as the supply and demand of the sector taking into account production, consumption, and commercial flow. Finally, the structure of the world market and its main perspectives are briefly commented.
2. Sectorial characteristics
Pork meat is the most consumed in the world: 73 million tons in 2010, equivalent to 43 % of the total consumption of meats.
This meat is outlined for being a great source of proteins. In average, among 18 to 20 grams of protein per 100 grams of product.
In Uruguay there was an increase in the consumption of pork meat in the last years. Although pork meat is the least consumed in our country (10,3% of total meats), in the first semester of 2011 its consumption increased 9% compared to same period of 2010, whereas the consumption of bovine meat, equivalent to 65% of the total consumption of meat, decreased 5,4 % in the same period.
Uruguay imports meat and pork fats for its later elaboration. The raw material which supplies the industry of porcine meat is mostly of foreign origin (61%), mainly from Brazil and Chile, whereas the national production represents 39% of the raw material.
Uruguay does not have any type of sanitary restriction in the production of pork.
Uruguayan trade of pork is basically internal and is commercialized mostly in butcher´s shops and supermarkets.

3. Pork chain in Uruguay
3.1-Structure
The structure of the porcine meat chain is composed by four links:
Primary production
Intermediation
Industrialization
Commercialization
1. Primary production
Within the primary production are the activities of breeding, rearing and fattening. The primary production is held basically by small producers (80%) whereas the medium and big producers have a participation of 18% and 2% respectively. The majority of the producing establishments are located in the south-central area of the country, being the Departments (political division of Uruguay) of major production: Montevideo, Canelones, San Jose, Soriano, Rocha and part of Florida and Lavalleja. Map Nº1 - Pigs (Thousands of heads by Department) - Year 2010
In the last years a change has been registered in the primary production, characterized by the reduction in the number of producers. According to the last porcine survey2, 54% of the establishments surveyed in the census of 2000 abandoned production, remaining only 2.800 establishments. Nevertheless, the existence of pork decreased in minor proportion, determining a major concentration of the production. The number of animals for company changed from 42 in the year 2000 to 70 in 2010. It is important to emphasize that a great percentage of these producers perform farm slaughter, where 50% is sold, 30% is for consumption and 20% is destined to elaborated products.

2. Intermediation
This link connects the actors of the primary phase to those of the industrial phase, composed by intermediaries and fairs. This latter canal is the most used by small producers who specialize in breeding for later selling their pigs.
3. Industrialization
Includes the activities of slaughter and elaborated products. There exist diverse cuts of meat and products, the first ones are outlined as fresh cuts, backbone (loin), palette, roast and ham and the second ones can qualify in sausages and not sausages. This phase is composed by slaughterhouses, companies that elaborate products, companies that are only dedicated to production - with imported meat or native - and finally companies that sell porcine meat. As for the slaughterhouse, in 2010, the 10 authorized companies, registered slaughtering for a total of 177.104 heads, of which 4 not only slaughter but also elaborate products. More than 80% of the total slaughter is concentrated in the above mentioned companies. In reference to the companies dedicated to the elaboration of products, it is observed that besides the 4 companies previously mentioned, there exist 15 other companies dedicated to this production. It is necessary to emphasize, since it was mentioned previously, that many of these companies use imported raw material. Table 1 shows the slaughterhouses which elaborate products or not. In the first group, appears Mirnabel S.A with 41.7% of the total slaughter, followed by Ardistar S.A (33.7%). On the other hand, Arroyal S.A is the most important slaughterhouse which does not elaborate products with a participation of 10.3%.

4. Commercialization
The national commercialization is made thru different channels, such as butcher's shops and
supermarkets, though in a lesser scale, the direct sale of meat and elaborated products can be
found.
Likewise, to complete the meat chain, it is necessary to incorporate the inputs and the capital
goods, like the food based in grains, forages and by products of the lacteal industry, among
others. The increase of the production of grains in the country has contributed positively to
the development of this chain since 70% of production costs are due to food supply.

5. Research
In terms of research and development, it´s worth mentioning that Uruguay has, as part of the
Agronomic Faculty, belonging to the National State University, a specialized Unit of Pork
Producer´s which handles the education , research and extension plans as its main objective in
porcine production. In the last years diverse programs and projects of investigation have been
developed in areas linked to technology, genetics, quality of products, sanitary status, among
others.
3.2- Supply and demand
Production
The supply of pork meat showed a recovery in 2010 after the significant fall registered in 2009.
2010 finished with a production of meat of 18.397 tons, which meant an increase of 6.4 % with
regard to 2009. This increase is due to the major stock of porks-5 % in 2010-and to the
consequent increase of slaughter.

Internal Consumption
Uruguay has a meat consumption structure that differs from the rest of the world. While in our country, bovine meat is the most consumed (65%) and pork is in third place (with a participation of 10%), in the rest of the world pork meat leads the consumption of meat with a share of 43% in total.

However, in recent years there´s been a change in the habit of meat consumption in Uruguay,
increasing consumer preference for pork meat. In 2003, pork consumption per capita stood at
8.3 kilos, while in 2010 this consumption reached nearly 10.7 kilos per capita, determining that
the growth of pork consumption in 2010 was the largest of all meats (13 %).
Of continuing this behavior, it is estimated that in 2011 the consumption will reach 11 kilos per
capita. This growth is due to the even greater participation in the share of consumption of
fresh meat, combined with a major presence in places of commercialization such as
supermarkets and butcher´s shops.

Exports and imports
Foreign trade of the sector presents a deficit due to the characteristic from which Uruguay imports a high volume of pork meat that is used for domestic output. On the export side, these are very limited on both, porcine meat and elaborated products, which reflects that the industrial production takes the internal market as a destination. The imports, on the opposite side, reach a considerable value (US$ 43 million in 2010), of which 86% are imports of pork.
Porcine Meat
Regarding exports of pork there was a significant decrease in the period 2006-2010, being the
Russian Federation the only destination in 2006 and exports in 2010 reached only 4 tons. It is
necessary to emphasize that last year´s exports correspond only to Rondatel S.A. and its sole
country of destination was Equatorial Guinea, country that registers purchases in every year of
the period. On the other hand, in 2011 there were not registered exports of this item.
Import values registered an upward trend in the period 2006-2010, presenting an average
annual growth rate of 28%. It should be noted that imports in 2011, overcame the registered
ones in the closed year 2010 - both in value and in volume. Brazil is the principal importer,
representing 88% of the total of the volume imported, followed by Chile (5 %) and
Denmark (4 %).
The main importers are Centenario SA (19%), Sindon SA (18%), Wilisol (12%) and Carlos Shneck
(9%) together representing 58 % of total tons imported in 2011.

Pork products
The exports of products derived from the porcine industry are very scanty and consist of the
following products: prosciutto, hams and shoulders.
As shown in the table below, excluding the exports of raw ham – which were continued from
2006- the other products were exported in punctual years. The exports of raw ham correspond
to a sole company, ÑANDUGUAY S.R.L., whose destination is Brazil. Other products were
destined to Brazil and United States.

Regarding the imports, it is highlighted the high value of imports of pork fat. This product is used as raw material in the processing industries. In 2010, the imports of fat contributed in more than half of the value of derivate products, reaching US$ 3,6 millions. The first origin of these imports is Chile, representing 50% of total imports, followed by Denmark (23%). Other products of the processing industries imported by Uruguay are “Shoulders and cut thereof of swine” and “ham”, which together represent 16% of the total amount of imports. Likewise meat, Brazil is the main origin of these imports, being SADIA the company responsible.

Investment
Since 2007, with the approval of Decree Nº 455, which regulates Chapter III of the Law of the Promotion and Protection of Investments (Law Nº 16.906), there have been approved a wide range of sector projects, totaling US$ 3.07 million. These investments are mainly concentrated in the industrialization and sale of pork products.
4. The global market and commercial opportunities
World production of pork meat totalized a volume of 102.7 million tons in 2010 and is
expected to reach a record level by 2012. This growth is due mainly to the recovery of South
Korea and China. China is the largest producer, accounting for 50% of the total
volume followed by the European Union (22%) and Brazil (3%).
In terms of consumption, during the past 11 years, world consumption grew steadily except
for 2007, the year in which it fell 1.4% due to the fall in the demand of China by
7.4%. Consumption in 2010 totalized 102.5 million tons of meat, a slight increase is
estimated for 2012. Again, the main consumers are China, European Union, Brazil and it should
be added the United States which ranks as the third largest consumer of pork.
In the region, consumption is also increasing, with Brazil and Mexico the largest consumers,
followed by Chile and Argentina.

While pork is the most produced meat in the world, exceeding production of poultry meat (77 million tons) and beef (57 million tons), it is not the most widely traded. In 2010 the tonnage exported was 6 million and the tonnage imported was 5,8 million, implying that only 6% of the production was traded. Regarding exports, the United States is the largest exporter followed by the European Union, Canada and Brazil. It is estimated that by 2012, United States exports will rise and European Union exports will decline, reaching a volume of 2.3 million and 1.9 million tons respectively. Regarding imports, the major importers are Japan (19.3%), Russian Federation (14.8%), Mexico (10.1%) and South Korea (10%).

Global Perspectives4
For 2014 it is expected a moderate growth, consumption, production and world trade in meat, resulting in a dynamic market. According to FAO's strong economic growth in developing countries in conjunction with consumer preference for foods with higher protein content will lead to increased consumption of meat. This growth will be driven by increased production of pork and
poultry in developing countries.
