多种因素限制了西部加拿大猪舍扩大

       CANADA - The chair of Sask Pork says a combination of factors have limited the ability of western Canada's pork producers to expand production in response to improved profitability, writes Bruce Cochrane. In response to strong hog prices, combined with low feed costs, which resulted in record profitability in 2014, we're seeing increased interest in expanding North American pork production.

       Florian Possberg, the chair of the Saskatchewan Pork Development Board, says US producers, particularly in the Midwest are in expansion mode so there are finishing barns and sow barns going in and there's some expansion in Ontario and Quebec but we haven't seen any significant activity in terms of new construction in western Canada.

　　加拿大——Sask猪肉发展局主席说，一些混合因素限制了西部的加拿大猪肉生产商扩大其生产力，它是受增长了的盈利能力激发的，布鲁斯·科克伦(Bruce Cochrane)写道。生猪强势的价格，加上饲料成本低，导致2014年获得创纪录的利润，我们看到北美猪肉生产商的兴趣有所增加。    

　　萨斯喀彻温省的猪肉发展局主席Florian Possberg说，美国生产商，特别是在中西部地区的，正处于扩张模式，所以有在建的猪舍和母猪围栏，在安大略省和魁北克省有一些扩大，但在加拿大西部我们还没有看到任何与新建筑相关的重大活动。
