Good news for the Australian pig industry with pork consumption on the rise

Andrew Spencer CEO Australian Pork Limited

T

he 2017-2018 financial year has been a very difficult one for the Australian pork industry. At the start of 2017, pig prices collapsed close to the cost of production and have not recovered since.

In fact, in early 2018, pig prices re-commenced their falls when even larger supply volumes started to hit the market in February, March, April and May. Presently, producer profitability is being hit very hard by these low pig prices and the additional impact of very high grain prices affecting the cost of feeding pigs.

This profitability crisis is expected to result in some producers, either permanently or temporarily leaving, the industry. Whilst this hasn’t happened to any large extent yet, pig farmer balance sheets are being stretched and it is anticipated that in coming months, supply changes will start to impact on the market.

The good news for the industry has been the growth of pork consumption, in particular Australian fresh pork.

Pork supply To the end of May 2018, annual production of pork nationally was 5.9 per cent more than it was for the same period one year earlier.

This supply increase has been a surprise considering that we have been communicating with industry for close to 18 months that pork supply into the market was too high and having a very negative affect on pork and pig prices.

This increase has not been evenly

distributed across the country. Most of the eastern states have annual growth to the end of May for pork production at around four to five per cent.

The exception has been Western Australia where supply growth has been closer to 16 per cent. The large volumes of excess pork in the west has led to significant volumes crossing the Nullarbor week by week to impact on eastern markets as well.

There are some hints within the pork production sector that there may be some reductions happening, either within farms with changes to the number of mated sows being used or across the industry in total with some producers having exited.

However, data that APL has been collecting from our pig producer intentions surveys (within the production survey) do not indicate that these reductions are enough to have a significant positive impact on pig prices into the 2018-2019 financial year.

Cost of production The 2017-2018 global grai n market dynamics and, to a greater extent, Australian local climatic conditions have led to significant increases in the price of grain. Since grain forms the main cost of pig feed, this is having a significant impact on producer profitability.

We are hearing reports of producers paying over $400 per tonne for feed wheat, which – when calculated out to the impact on the cost of production of a kilogram of pork – is a very significant component.

With very dry climatic conditions continuing in large parts of the northern wheat belt, we don’t expect that grain prices will start to come down until well into the next calendar year.

Pork consumption The good news is that pork is becoming more and more popular with Australian consumers.

Since 2011, fresh pork consumption has increased from around 8.5 kilograms per capita per annum to somewhere between 11.5 and 12 kilograms per capita per annum today.

This is an increase of more than 25 per cent.

This sharp increase is impressive for a meat commodity. Unfortunately, the increase in demand does not

compensate for the large increases in supply affecting prices.

The “Get some pork on your fork” advertising campaign continues to deliver strong demand results for the industry.

APL research indicates that pork is the only meat category that is increasing in consumption, with beef, lamb and chicken consumption remaining generally flat.

Research into the food service sector also indicates that pork is becoming more popular in this part of the market.

Our PorkStar and Inspired by Australian Pork activities continue to try to ensure that pork remains a visible part of the menus at the top and middle sectors of Australia’s restaurant industry.

Pork trade Imports of raw pork into Australia were relatively constant through 20172018. During the year somewhere between 160 and 170 thousand tonnes (moving annual total basis) were imported into Australia.

As required, this product can only be used for processing into pre-cooked product or for smallgoods. With the current pork oversupply conditions, there have been attempts to increase the volume of Australian pork used in the smallgoods sector.

This has had mixed success, with the logistical challenges being the major barrier. In July 2018, new Country of Origin Labelling (CoOL) laws commenced in Australia.

We are looking closely at the impact of these on consumer behaviour with the intention that, if necessary, we can invest in some consumer education activities where these may be in the interest of Australian pork consumption.

Our export volumes have been increasing through the financial year, driven by desires to move more pork volume.

Some of this business has been undertaken at prices that would not normally be attractive purely due to the oversupply situation.

APL continues to investigate market opportunities and work with the government on improving market access to ensure that we have as many opportunities for export of our pork as possible.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 4 Research and innovation

APL’s R&D efforts continued through the year, focused on improving productivity of Australian pork production as well as ensuring that our industry operates in a way consistent with the community’s ethics and expectations.

In the present circumstances, there has been a key focus in much of our organisation on short-term tactical efforts to improve market conditions for producers.

Despite this, R&D has continued with a longer-term focus, as this is the most effective way to deliver that innovation to industry.

Two specific areas of focus during the past year have been eating quality and traceability. Both areas are critical to our future success, especially in international markets.

We are not the world’s lowest cost producer and our product is more expensive. Therefore, our pork must have attributes that are unique and compel consumers to demand it. We believe that an enhanced quality of eating experience of Australian pork and the ability to verify the origin of our quality pork will be significant positive attributes driving demand for Australian pork overseas.

Producer relations and membership Given the present difficult business conditions, many producers are operating in financially distressed circumstances.

In light of these conditions, APL has been focusing on short-term demand growth improvement as well

Wundke, Rohan Position: Technical Manager Qualifications: B App Sc (Ag) Address: Alltech Lienert Australia, 8 Roseworthy Road, Roseworthy SA 5371 Telephone: 1800 649 231 Mobile: 0409 087 624 Email: rwundke@alltech.com Website: www.alltech.com.au Young, Nigel Position: Monogastric Sales Representative - SA Address: Alltech Lienert Australia, 8 Roseworthy Road Roseworthy SA 5371 Telephone: 1800 649 231 Mobile: 0436 193 253 Email: nyoung@alltech.com Website: www.alltechlienert.com.au Younger, Andrew Position: Regional Account Manager (NSW QLD) Address: Ridley, 154 Anzac Ave, Toowoomba, QLD 4350 Mobile: 0419772558 E-mail: andrew.younger@ridley.com.au

as providing as much accurate and timely information to our pig farmers as possible to enable them to make their own informed business decisions.

We have also worked to increase the level of communication with producers to ensure that they understand that APL is working to leave no stone unturned in trying to find solutions for the industry. There have been many producer meetings held, efforts to advise producers around financial and mental health support services, and increased frequency of reporting on industry conditions around the market.

Working with government APL has also been working closely with state and federal departments and politicians to keep them informed about the operating conditions within the industry.

Governments have been keen to ensure that our producers are made aware of their options in terms of government support and being able to use the services as easily as possible.

We also continue to work closely with governments on those issues that will have an impact on the future viability of the industry.

These include trade and market access (in particular progressing towards negotiation of protocols for trade with China), labour availability on Australian pig farms, and the new CoOL laws and their effectiveness in improving consumer informed choice.

APL operations We welcome our new chair to APL – Mr David Lock. We look forward to

working closely with him to improve industry conditions for our producers in months and years to come.

We say goodbye to Enzo Allara, a giant of the Australian pork industry and someone whose contribution we will sorely miss.

Until now, Enzo has been the sole Chairman of APL that I have worked with and it has been an absolute pleasure to have done so.

It has also been an enormous honour to have had a close working relationship alongside someone with so much wisdom and experience.

I thank the APL Board for their ongoing support to myself and to our management team.

These are difficult times and it’s difficult to know where it is that we need to focus efforts to relieve the pressure on industry.

The Board has been extremely diligent in ensuring that we do our best in this area. My thanks also go to the APL executive team and the wider team because, despite all the issues pig farmers are facing, they remain focused on doing their jobs as well as they possibly can.
