Most live pigs can only be soaked in water, and there is no open space to transport
.
"Here is flat ground, and digging a trench does not have much effect.
You can only wait for the water to recede slowly

　　China Galaxy Securities analyst Xie Zhiyou pointed out in the research report that the flooding caused by heavy rainfall may increase the difficulty of pig breeding and delay the construction of pig farms
.
At the same time, affected by the increase in precipitation, the prevention and control of related diseases such as African swine fever may increase, and the repeated epidemics may bring potential losses to farmers

　　The impact of heavy rains on pig prices is relatively mildC6p China Feed Industry Information Network-Based on feed, serving animal husbandry

　　According to the official website of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Henan Province, as a major pig breeding province and a major foreign transfer province, Henan's annual pig breeding volume accounts for about 1/10 of the country, and it is an important pig production, processing and supply base in the country
.
According to data, in 2020, the province's live pig population was 38.
87 million and the breeding sow population was 4.
026 million, ranking first in the country; 43.

　　As the largest province in the domestic pig inventory, will Henan’s heavy rains affect the national pig price? In this regard, Zhu Zengyong, a researcher at the Beijing Institute of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Medicine of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, told the Beijing News that although Henan’s pig inventory is at the highest level in the country, However, when the national pork supply is relatively abundant, the relevant changes will not have a significant impact on the national pig price

　　“I’ve been driving around Zhengzhou and Xinxiang in the past few days and found that the heavy rain in Henan has not had a significant impact on the pig breeding industry, and transactions such as the sale of pigs by Henan farmers have gradually returned to normal
.
” Feng Yonghui analyzed that at the beginning of the Henan flood, because Pigs could not be shipped out, and the price of pigs once rose slightly, but with subsequent traffic returning to normal, the price has fallen
.
At the same time, the main pig producing areas in Henan Province are mainly concentrated in the central and southern regions, such as Zhumadian, Nanyang, Zhoukou, and Shangqiu
.
However, Zhengzhou and Xinxiang, which were severely affected by the heavy rain this time, had a large amount of pig farming before African Swine Fever.
However, after experiencing African Swine Fever, the relevant areas have reduced production capacity and the situation of re-raising is not good.

　　One month after the disaster, we must strictly prevent the pandemicC6p China Feed Industry Information Network-Based on feed, serving animal husbandry

　　In the current disaster, what should be paid attention to by the pig breeding practitioners in Henan? The China Animal Husbandry Association recently mentioned in a letter of condolences to the practitioners in the animal husbandry industry in Henan Province that in the face of the disaster, we must do everything possible to stabilize production, especially when the price of pigs is falling.
During the difficult period of declining benefits, it is even more necessary to strengthen the management of live pig production, and do a good job of saving costs and increasing efficiency
.
At the same time, after a major disaster, it is necessary to strictly prevent the epidemic, and all animal husbandry enterprises and farm households must strengthen the prevention and control measures of major animal diseases to ensure the biological safety of animal husbandry production and the quality and safety of livestock products

　　Regarding the spread of animal diseases after the flood, Feng Yonghui said that the flood caused the water level to rise.
As long as the pig farm is flooded, the feces and urine in the pig farm will be transferred to places dozens of kilometers away with the water
.
At the same time, most germs and viruses like the water environment, so wherever the water spreads, the germs and viruses of animal diseases spread through this way
.
In 2006, heavy rains in the south caused floods, and the blue-ear disease of pigs spread in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River within a short period of time
.
Therefore, the biggest potential safety hazard in the current Henan pig industry is that the rise of water levels may increase the spread of pig diseases
.

　　"The incubation period of viruses such as African swine fever is one month, so the observation in the next month is very important
.
" Feng Yonghui pointed out that after the water falls, each pig farm must strictly disinfect the pig houses and conduct random inspections on pigs.
See if you are infected with the disease
.
As long as there is no disease infection
.
Live pigs that have experienced the flood can be sold and eaten without any problem
