ITALY - At 722,900 tonnes, the volume of fresh/frozen pork imported into Italy during the first nine months of 2016 was 5 per cent behind year earlier levels, according to the latest figures released by Istat.Nonetheless, this still leaves Italy the second largest pork importer during Q1-Q3 2016 and therefore still an important player in the global pig meat marketplace.The key importing nations of Germany and the Netherlands saw shipments decline 1 per cent on year earlier levels, while Denmark and France saw relatively larger declines of 17 per cent and 23 per cent respectively. In contrast, shipments from second-largest importer Spain increased 7 per cent, reaching 112,300 tonnes.

　　根据意大利统计局(Istat)公开的最新数字显示，意大利2016年前9个月的清新/寒冻猪肉进口量为72.29万公吨，比去年同期水平减少5%。然而，这样的成就还是让意大利成为2016年首席到第三季度的最二大猪肉进口国，因此他仍是全球猪肉市场的重要消费国。向意大利进口的重要输出国德国和荷兰的猪肉数量同比都减少了1%，而丹麦和法国向意大利出口的猪肉数量减少的相对更多，分辞为17%和23%。与此相反，来自第二大进口国西班牙的猪肉数量增长7%，达到11.23万公吨。
