Pork consumption before the Spring Festival did not successfully drive the pig price up, as of January 20, the price of live pigs continued to decline, the price of foreign three yuan pigs fell to 7.2 yuan, and the local miscellaneous pigs fell below 7 yuan. On the one hand, it is caused by the recovery of production capacity on the supply side, the concentration of pig farmers, and the sale of pigs caused by the instability of diseases in some areas, which has caused pig prices to trample. On the other hand, because many consumers have advanced pork consumption, coupled with the high price of pork, the peak season of pork consumption is not strong.
What is the situation when the pig price suddenly rises?
I learned from the pig dealers that the recent slaughter of pigs in slaughter enterprises has remained at a high level for many consecutive days, indicating that with the approaching of the small year, pork consumption has increased, and the number of pigs needed for slaughtering by slaughtering enterprises is larger, which is an important reason for the rise in pig prices.
In addition, the current pig price has fallen to the level of 7-7.5 yuan, this price for self-breeding pig farms can only maintain the level of capital preservation, and the purchased piglet pig farm can still have a small amount of profits, pig price recession led to some pig farmers began to suppress the price, in the context of high demand for pork, slaughter enterprises to collect pigs The difficulty has increased, continue to continue the sluggish pig price trend, the supply of pigs has been unable to meet the demand, the pressure of supply and demand imbalance finally contributed to the sudden rise in pig prices.
Is the pig price about to reverse?
The strange point of pig prices is that South China and Southwest China, as two traditional pork sales areas, have been among the best before pig prices, but the gap between south China pig prices and other regions is getting smaller and smaller, and the southwest pig prices are surpassed by some northern regions, and the emergence of this phenomenon has a lot to do with the current downturn in domestic pork consumption. The consumption of the sales area is still like this, and the consumption in the production area is even less likely to set off any big waves.
On the whole, there are pig dealers predicting that this wave of rise does not mean that the pig price will be reversed, the probability is only a flash in the pan, it is difficult to maintain, the ideal state is to be able to rise until the small year, after a small year, the new year goods that should be bought are basically prepared, the demand for pork will decline significantly, and even if the pig farmers want to raise the price, there is no basis for the price. Coupled with the fact that some slaughtering enterprises will continue to stop work, the demand for slaughtering pigs will continue to decline, and pig prices are likely to decline again.
