Pig prices rose for 5 days in a row

On December 23, pig prices fell to the lowest level in the past six months. The national average pig price once fell to about 8.5 yuan. Then pig prices bottomed out and rebounded, rising for 5 days in a row. I think the rebound in pig prices is inseparable from the following factors:

  • 1. On the breeding side, the prices are high and the pigs are reluctant to sell, especially the farmers who raise fat pigs directly stop selling.
  • 2. After the group pig farm completes the annual slaughter task, it will slow down the pig slaughter rate.
  • 3. After the price of pigs fell to the bottom, it drove down the price of pork and stimulated the recovery of pork consumption. Some areas gradually recovered from the epidemic. The passenger flow in markets, supermarkets and other areas increased, and the demand for pork increased.
  • 4, the National Development and Reform Commission announced purchases and reserves to support the price of pigs.

What the market is worried about is happening.

What the market is worried about is happening. Some farmers have regretted that after the price of pigs has risen for five consecutive days, the average price has rebounded from 8.5 yuan to 9.35 yuan. The breeding side has also taken advantage of the trend to get rid of the problem of losses. However, the rise in pig prices is not a good thing. After a short-term rise in pig prices, it is very likely that there will be a larger drop, and this is what everyone in the market has been worried about.

This logic is not complicated. Affected by the high production capacity of and , the problem of oversupply of pigs has not changed. The rise in pig prices in is not a change in the relationship between supply and demand. It is just a price increase on the breeding side and a reluctance to sell. This change can only increase the price of pigs in a short period of time, but will lead to a delay in the slaughter of pigs. It will not only increase the subsequent supply of pigs, but also increase the weight of pigs for slaughter. The increase in pig prices caused by the price increase is often followed by a larger drop.

In the past three days, this worry has begun to occur. The price of live pigs has fallen for three consecutive days, and the average price has returned to the 8 yuan level. Specific to the prices in various regions, the price of pigs in some areas of the Northeast and Southwest has entered the "7 yuan level." On December 31, the price of pigs in South China dropped to 8.4-9.7 yuan, in Northeast China it dropped to 7.8-8.5 yuan, in East China it dropped to 8.4-9.2 yuan, and in Central China it dropped to 8.1-8.6 yuan. At this price, many farmers once again entered a state of loss.

Some farmers have regretted it.

It is no wonder that some farmers have begun to regret it. On the one hand, because of their greed for high prices, they were reluctant to sell pigs when the price of pigs fell in October and November. In just two months, high profits turned into deep losses. On the other hand, pig prices have been rising for several consecutive days in early December and in recent days. This was a good opportunity for farmers to sell pigs, but many farmers did not seize the opportunity and missed the rebound in pig prices in early December. Now they have missed the rebound in late December.

January is about to enter, and the time left for farmers to sell pigs is getting shorter and shorter. From the current supply and demand sides, the number of pigs available for slaughter is still at a high level. On the demand side, although the Spring Festival consumption is good, due to the impact of the epidemic, how much "skill" can this consumption good use in pickling has already explained the problem. According to agency statistics, the demand for pickled meat has dropped by 20-30% compared with previous years. The launch of pickling has also failed to drive up the price of pigs. It is a bit ridiculous to put the hope of stimulating the rise in pig prices on the good consumption of the Spring Festival.

A saying that farmers often say is "raising well is not as good as selling well." Reasonable arrangements and grasping the rhythm of slaughter are more difficult than raising pigs well. In the future, how to sell pigs will also become a must-learn course for farmers.

Pig friends, do you still have pigs on hand that you haven’t sold yet? Do you regret it now?

Recently, I heard that pig farms in some areas have become unstable. Some pig farms have suffered from African Fever, and some have suffered from viral diarrhea .For these two diseases, there is no vaccine for ASF. Although there is a vaccine for viral diarrhea, due to the characteristics of the diarrhea virus itself, the vaccine immunity effect is not ideal. Therefore, to prevent these two diseases, I think we should return to the essence of infectious disease prevention and control.

1. Remove the source of infection. regularly tests pigs to understand the situation of African Fever and viral diarrhea in pig farms. Once the African Fever virus is detected, timely elimination measures need to be taken to prevent the spread of virus . Once a viral diarrhea virus is detected, disinfection measures need to be taken inside the pig farm to prevent the spread of the virus, and pigs that have become sick must be isolated and disinfected.

2. Cut off the transmission channels. ASF is mainly transmitted through contact. In addition to being transmitted through direct contact between pigs, diarrhea viruses also have the ability to spread through the air. Therefore, regular disinfection of pigs must be carried out inside the pig farm. In addition, the feeding management must be strengthened. Keepers must be strictly managed between buildings, and no movement or borrowing of items is allowed.

3. Protect susceptible animals. For African Fever, pigs at any stage are susceptible animals. For viral diarrhea, newborn piglets and nursery piglets are susceptible animals.

  • a and sows regularly add to their feed astragalus polysaccharide powder/Qizhen Zengwu Granules and other qi-tonifying drugs and Isatis Granules/Qiqing Baidu Granules/Fuzheng Jiedu Powder and other heat-clearing and detoxifying drugs, to strengthen the body while dispelling evil spirits, enhancing the resistance of the pigs, and preventing the occurrence of viral diseases.
  • b. Sows should be immunized against viral diarrhea vaccine one month before farrowing and immunized against once every two weeks.
  • c, from 7 days before delivery to 14 days after delivery, astragalus polysaccharide powder + microecological preparation is added to the feed to regulate the intestines of sows, reduce the viral load of diarrhea , and prevent the occurrence of viral diarrhea.
