According to USMEF and USDA, October pork export volume was 207,725 metric tons. That’s the largest since May, but still two percent lower year-over-year, reflecting smaller variety meat exports. Export value was also the largest since May, but still down five percent from a year ago. For January through October, pork exports were one percent above 2017’s record pace at 2.02 million metric tons, while value was also up one percent.
