Data GIW on the import of pork from Germany
Simultaneously we requested the Main Inspectorate of Veterinary to provide detailed data on quantities of shipment and volume of import live pigs. We have to not wait for a while, no less today we can officially say, that from day 10 to 29 January from the territory of Germany has entered Poland 60 shipment of live pigs totaling 12 786 stocks of cattle pigs.
