Countdown to the Winter Olympics丨The total supply of meat, eggs, milk, fruits, vegetables and fish during this year's Spring Festival and the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games is sufficient

Guangming Network News (reporter Li Mengzhu) "vegetable basket" products are closely related to the lives of ordinary people and are important people's livelihood commodities. At a press conference held by the State Council's new office on January 20, Tang Ke, director of the Department of Market and Information Technology of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said that during this year's Spring Festival and the Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, the total supply of meat, eggs, milk, fruits, vegetables and fish is sufficient, which can fully meet the consumption needs of urban and rural residents.

Tang Ke introduced that in 2021, the mainland pig production recovery target task was completed half a year ahead of schedule, pork production increased significantly, basically returned to the level of historical normal years, beef and mutton, poultry meat, milk production hit a record high, fishery production is stable, aquatic products production is sufficient, livestock and poultry aquatic products supply are fully guaranteed. Citrus and other fruits are listed in large quantities, apples, pears and other fruits are abundant, the fruit market is sufficient, there are many varieties, and the price is relatively stable. At present, the national vegetable field area is about 80 million mu, an increase of more than 2 million mu year-on-year, and it is expected that the total supply of vegetables in the next 3 months will be 170 million tons, an increase of 3.5 million tons year-on-year, plus winter storage vegetables, which can provide about 3 kg of vegetables per person per day. However, due to the rise in gasoline and diesel prices and seasonal factors, it is expected that vegetable prices will be relatively firm.

"In the later period, some areas may experience staged adverse weather, and the pressure on agricultural products to maintain supply and stabilize prices is greater than in previous years." Tang Ke said that in the next step, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs will continue to work with relevant departments and localities to actively adopt targeted measures and focus on doing a good job in four aspects. The first is stable production. The zoning classification should do a good job in the production of winter and spring vegetables in key areas such as the "Southern Vegetables and Northern Transportation" base, the large and medium-sized cities in the north, and the large and medium-sized cities, continue to do a good job in livestock and poultry aquaculture, and continuously improve the market supply capacity of "vegetable basket" products. The second is unimpeded circulation. Work with relevant departments to strictly implement the "green channel" policy for the transportation of fresh and live agricultural products, actively coordinate the construction of "point-to-point" docking relationships between production areas and sales areas, and ensure that "vegetable basket" products can be produced, transported and supplied. The third is to do a good job in emergency response. Pay close attention to major festivals, major activities, and special periods such as extreme weather such as rain, snow, and ice, strengthen production scheduling and market dynamic monitoring and early warning, and guide and urge all localities, especially large and medium-sized cities, to formulate emergency supply plans. The fourth is to ensure safety. Strengthen quality and safety supervision, increase the intensity of sampling inspections, and effectively ensure the "safety on the tip of the tongue" of the people. In accordance with the unified deployment of the Winter Olympic Organizing Committee, strengthen the quality and safety control of the base of direct supply of agricultural products for the Winter Olympics, cooperate with relevant departments to do a good job in the prevention and control of foodborne stimulants, and complete various tasks with quality and quantity.

The data shows that the high price of live pigs in 2021 gradually fell, from 35.8 yuan per kilogram in January to 17.59 yuan in December, and the pig price in December is still higher than the average production cost of 15.5 yuan per kilogram of about 2 yuan. In this regard, Tang Ke said that from the perspective of pig breeding income, in addition to the loss from June to October, the remaining 7 months are more profitable, according to the weighted average calculation of the amount of discharge, each pig in the whole year still has a profit of 564 yuan, higher than the profit level of about 200 yuan in normal years. For the whole industry, pig breeding in 2021 is still a bumper harvest year.
