    Introduction: the impact of new page 1 SARS on China's agricultural products has initially appeared The export of poultry meat has been blocked, and the breeding industry has been severely damaged Under the domino effect, soybean meal, corn and other feed materials and soybeans have also been affected VZH "inability to flow products is the biggest problem." Gao Xu, manager of poultry export trade department of China grain, oil and food import and export (Group) Co., Ltd., said, "as far as Beijing is concerned, people from Beijing to other places are generally isolated for a few days, and many goods are subject to strict inventory, so now many trucks are not going out, and drivers are not willing to go to other places The situation in other provinces and cities is similar, which results in poor domestic poultry sales channels, and products in many regions can only be consumed in the province " Above VZH is only the impact of SARS on domestic poultry meat consumption Recently, some scientists said that SARS virus is likely to come from animals, which seriously hindered the export of poultry meat in China Although there is no evidence to prove the above statement at present, many countries and regions have begun to prohibit the purchase of poultry meat in Guangdong Merchants from Europe and the United States and other countries have also cancelled the contracts for the import of poultry products in China, resulting in the basically stagnant export of livestock and poultry products in China It is reported that due to the impact of SARS, Hunan Grain and oil import and export company's pork exports to Hong Kong and Macao fell by 87% in April this year, and the meat products exported to Japan also fell by 50% Therefore, SARS will bring incalculable losses to China's breeding industry On May 12, VZH, Japan announced that due to the detection of avian influenza virus in the duck products exported from Shandong Province to Japan, the import of poultry products from China was suspended, which made the export of poultry meat in China worse, because the export of poultry meat to Japan accounted for 40% - 60% of the total export Gao Xu said that after Japan announced a moratorium on the import of Chinese poultry products, its neighboring countries would later announce similar decisions However, since the EU banned the import of Chinese animal products last year, it has not recovered, and now it seems more impossible Therefore, China's poultry products suffered a heavy blow this year According to her estimate, COFCO's poultry product sales have lost at least 50% due to poor exports "It will take at least three or four months for trade to recover, taking into account China's current situation." While the meat consumption of VZH was affected by SARS and the aquaculture industry was severely damaged, the consumption of domestic feed by the aquaculture industry was also correspondingly reduced, which directly led to the decline of the production of feed enterprises According to a survey of large feed producers in Jiangsu, Hebei, Guangdong and other provinces, their feed output in April this year decreased by about 30% compared with the same period last year, and they are not optimistic about the sales situation in May this year Wang Weiqun, vice president of VZH Xinjiang Taikun group, said the group's feed sales had recently fallen by about 20% compared with the same period last year A person from Sichuan new hope group, a leading domestic feed production enterprise, also said: "in addition to the decline in domestic sales, we are also affected by the increase in feed raw materials prices, because a considerable part of our production raw materials are imported During the SARS period, foreign businessmen did not come to discuss, resulting in a decrease in the supply of goods, resulting in a soaring raw materials prices, increasing Cost " Under the circumstances of poor sales and export suspension of domestic poultry and meat products, the purchase of feed raw materials by domestic feed production enterprises slowed down As the raw material of animal mixed feed, 90% of soybean meal is used as feed Therefore, the depression of feed industry leads to the overstock of soybean meal and the decline of price, which eventually affects the price of upstream product soybean Because soybean meal is produced after soybean oil extraction, the downturn of feed industry will affect soybean again, which is also the reason why the prices of soybean and soybean meal in Dalian Commodity Exchange fell sharply in late April or even stopped Half of China's soybeans need to be imported in VZH, so along with the decline of the efficiency of domestic breeding industry and the downturn of feed industry, the import of domestic soybeans has slowed down recently According to traders, recently, China's soybean importers are very inactive in the international market, with only a small number of trade transactions, and some traders have cancelled several previously ordered American soybeans If the SARS epidemic continues, China's soybean imports will also decrease this year At present, domestic soybean import enterprises have adjusted their strategies one after another As feed material, VZH corn has also been affected by SARS recently Due to the priority of railway transportation capacity in the transportation of anti SARS materials, the export of corn in the northeast of the main production area is affected and the export is reduced According to Mr Li Lei, R & D Specialist of China International Futures brokerage company, since the beginning of May, domestic corn export has slowed down a lot, and there is basically no corn export in Dalian port However, he pointed out that once the SARS epidemic is under control, domestic corn exports will quickly return to the previous level of more than 1 million tons per month In addition, the weak demand of domestic feed enterprises for corn also caused the recent domestic corn purchase and sale price and port price to decline VzH
