DCA launches meat platform to bring clarity to the market

Meat prices keep moving, and often quite dramatically. Beef prices in Europe rose by over 41 percent between late 2024 and spring 2025. For traders and processors, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep control of their margins.

DCA Market Intelligence now introduces a new international platform for pork, beef, and poultry. A place where independent benchmark prices, trade data, and market analyses come together.

All data within reach

No more piecing together information from scattered sources. The platform offers a personal dashboard with up-to-date prices, slaughter numbers, livestock data, trade flows, and import and export figures. It also provides independent quotations for pigs, piglets, and meat cuts such as hams and ribs. Daily market analyses keep users up to speed. And for those who want even more insight, data on external factors like currency rates, interest rates, and energy markets are available in one clear overview.

Objective reference point for the sector

“With this meat platform, we are bringing one of the most complete information sources for the meat sector,” says Eric de Lijster, Head of PRA at DCA Market Intelligence. “Independent price changes and real-time data give professionals an objective reference point to better anticipate price fluctuations.” The platform ties in seamlessly with DCA’s existing offerings for dairy, crops and ingredients, and potatoes and fries.
