Producers want pork from abroad plated up with transparency. 

The Government's raising minimum spacing requirements to 13% while time in farrowing crates drops from 33 days to just seven. 

Farmers need to implement the changes by 2035. 

NZ Pork Chief Executive Brent Kleiss told Ryan Bridge 60% of Kiwis eat imported pork, so it would be ideal to introduce standards for them too. 

He says if consumers were able to see clearer information about where their pork is coming from, it would give them more choice.
