This study investigates the relationship between international and local pork prices in ten net pork-importing countries from 2001 to 2018. The research finds that high self-sufficiency and low pig meat trade volume hinder price volatility transmission from the global market. This does not advocate for protectionism but offers insights into balancing efficient resource allocation and market stability.
