The pork industry is quite robust. It's a very significant market. Pork is one of our main export markets. Since our free trade agreements with the U.S. and Europe came into force, our pork exports have fluctuated a lot. Our exports rose as a result of an epidemic that affected Korea's pork market. Beef and hog farmers are telling us they are at a disadvantage when it comes to their competition in the U.S. and Europe. In the medium and long terms, they expect their market share to decrease. They feel very strongly about the need to fix the situation so they can once again be competitive.
