the latest statistics of animal husbandry and veterinary information in Shandong province show that March 12th - March 1 On the 8 day, the Shandong pig price was 10.95 yuan / kg, 28.99% and 3.52% over the same period. This is the price of pig pigs in Shandong for eighth weeks, and the pig breeding has fallen below the loss line.
data showed that, in addition to the price of pig in Shandong, the price of pork was down, the price was 23.16 yuan / kg, 15.35% and 2.28%.
at present, the price of the pig in Shandong and the corn price as the main feed are 5.70:1, 40.09% and 6.54%. Pig breeding has fallen below the line of loss. At present, fattening a pig is basically losing more than 240 yuan.
Hu Zhisheng, senior stockbreeding officer of the Shandong animal husbandry and Veterinary Information Center, said that in the supply side, the extreme weather caused the dislocations of the pig sales time, and the price of pigs began to fall. Demand, the market demand for pork less than in previous years, coupled with the late consumption season, resulting in weak market demand, also accelerated the decline in pig prices, resulting in a sustained low price volatility in March.
Hu Zhisheng analysis, in the short term, with the decrease in the amount of retained market in the market, the benefit of pig breeding is lower than the cost line, and the difficulty of collecting pigs for slaughtering enterprises is improved and the downward space of pig price is limited. In the big cycle, effective supply is rising gradually due to the impact of large-scale breeding on sow productivity and the increase of pig weight. This downward trend is expected to continue to April and is expected to rebound in May.
