Meat List is a service of FAO's Trade and Markets Division<http://www.fao.org/economic/est/est-commodities/meat/en/>
The FAO Meat Price Index averaged 169 points in April, down 1.6 points (0.9 percent) from a slightly revised value for March. At this level, the index is almost equal to its value in April 2017. During the month, bovine and pigmeat prices decreased slightly, while those of ovine and poultry meat remained stable. Larger exports from the Americas underpinned the decrease in bovine meat prices, while slackened import demand caused pigmeat prices to ease.

* Unlike for other commodity groups, most prices utilised in the calculation of the FAO Meat Price Index are not available when the FAO Food Price Index is computed and published; therefore, the value of the Meat Price Index for the most recent months is derived from a mixture of projected and observed prices. This can, at times, require significant revisions in the final value of the FAO Meat Price Index.
