According to information of the market operators, low supply of bulls at the market as well as strong demand for highly nourished cows stimulated the growth of prices. The rising cost of beef has led to higher prices at the pork market as well. In the nearest future the growth of prices for meat can be expected in the range of 5-7% for the end consumer.
