Meat companies in the Balearic Islands have begun to curb the import of live pigs from Catalonia as a precaution, following the outbreak of African Swine Fever (ASF) detected in Barcelona. However, officially there is no general restriction on the purchase of animals—either live or slaughtered—and the measures only affect the 91 municipalities in the area where the 13 infected wild boars were found. This business decision reflects the concern of the Balearic meat sector, which is heavily dependent on pork from Catalonia, accounting for up to 70% of its processed meat production. Both the pork used for direct consumption and that used for sausage production comes primarily from mainland Spain, and a significant percentage of it comes from Catalonia. For this reason, Balearic businesses and government officials are closely monitoring the evolution of the African swine fever outbreak, aware that any incident could have direct effects on a key product of the Balearic agribusiness, especially regarding the export of sobrasada, the sector's flagship product.
