      abstract = {The aim of this paper is to present the Hungarian  mangalitza pig and Dutch organic pig supply chains and, in  interrogating the
differences between the two sectors, to  make suggestions for the efficient operation of the  Hungarian mangalitza breeding sector. The
information about  the two was sourced by a depth interview and literature  reviews. It is established that there are few similarities  between the
two segments. In both sectors, the pigs are  kept outdoors in large paddocks, there are also National  Associations: in Hungary, the Association of
Mangalitza  Breeders (NAMB), in The Netherlands, the Organic Pork  Growers. They hold a general meeting every year, where they  discuss
issues such as volume, quality, price, marketing  and the future challenges and opportunities. There is  strong demand both for the mangalitza and
also for Dutch  organic pork products on foreign markets. The main  difference between them is their information systems. In  The Netherlands,
information flows via FarmingNet, but in  the mangalitza sector, no such system exists. Yet, such a  system would represent a breaking point for
the adequate  flow of data and efficient production for the NAMB, because  then, Hungarian farmers would be forced to supply data.},
