Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess the impact of SARS-CoV-2 virus on the meat market in Poland. The meat market is an important part of the Polish economy. Production of slaughter animals (pork, beef and poultry) accounts for over 1/3 of agricultural commodity production, and the meat industry (red meat and poultry) is the largest branch of food processing. The COVID-19 pandemic, which also reached Poland, did not significantly shake this market. A sign of the introduced restrictions in social and economic life was a short-term massive purchase of food with an extended shelf life. Lockdown slightly changed the eating and shopping habits of Poles. In the first half of 2020, exports of beef and poultry decreased by 3-5%, and exports of pork decreased by 28% compared to the first half of 2019. The meat market continued to struggle with African Swine Fever (ASF) and, in addition, with bird flu. The HoReCa segment was the most affected part of the market. / Celem niniejszego opracowania była ocena wpływu wirusa SARS-CoV-2 na rynek mięsa w Polsce. Rynek mięsa jest ważną częścią polskiej gospodarki. Produkcja żywca rzeźnego (wieprzowego, wołowego oraz drobiowego) stanowi ponad 1/3 produkcji towarowej rolniczej, a przemysł mięsny (mięsa czerwonego i drobiowego) jest największym działem przetwórstwa spożywczego. Pandemia COVID-19, która dotarła także do Polski nie zachwiała w znaczący sposób tym rynkiem. Oznaką wprowadzonych obostrzeń w życiu społecznym i gospodarczym był krótkotrwały zmasowany wykup żywności o przedłużonym terminie przydatności do spożycia. Lockdown zmienił nieco nawyki żywieniowe oraz zakupowe Polaków. W I połowie 2020 roku eksport mięsa wołowego oraz drobiowego zmniejszył się o 3-5%, a o 28% spadł eksport mięsa wieprzowego w porównaniu z I połową 2019 roku. Rynek mięsa borykał się w dalszym ciągu z afrykańskim pomorem świń (ASF) oraz dodatkowo ptasią grypą. Najbardziej poszkodowaną częścią rynku został segment HoReCa.
