    Recently, China Customs announced the latest import data.
    The data show that the total value of imports and exports in September increased by 18.

    Among them, China's grain imports from January to September were 12.

    As the main energy feed, corn accounts for about 60% of the feed in broiler farming and production, and it is the raw material with the highest proportion in ordinary feed
    .


    However, since domestically grown corn is mainly to meet the daily consumption of the citizens, there is a serious shortage of feed corn, and it has been imported to meet the growing domestic feed demand


    According to statistics from the General Administration of Customs, the total import of corn from January to September in 2021 was 24.
    93 million tons, accounting for 19.
    44% of the total grain imports.
    The net increase in imports reached 13.

    Among them, the corn import volume in September was 3.

      As international food prices continue to rise, increasing imports of corn have become a major concern for animal husbandry companies
    .


    On the one hand, the domestic animal husbandry industry is in a stage of rapid development, and the demand for feed is increasing


      On the other hand, both shipping costs and import prices have risen sharply, which indirectly pushed up domestic feed prices, resulting in rising production costs for breeding companies, and farmers are under unprecedented operating pressure

      Compared with corn, China is more dependent on soybean imports

      At present, the domestic soybean planting area is about 20 million mu, and the soybean output in 2020 is only 19.
    6 million tons.
    Facing the annual demand for more than 100 million tons of soybeans, it is still unable to do so, and the degree of external dependence is much higher than that of corn

      Although we all know that the "corn-soybean meal" feed is not in line with China’s national conditions and is the result of direct reference to foreign countries for the development prospects of animal husbandry, the "corn-soybean meal" feed has formed a complete set with the existing breeding species, and the feed has been changed rashly.
    The formula will lead to a decrease in the feed-to-meat ratio and a low egg production rate, which will seriously affect the breeding efficiency of the enterprise

      However, domestic research on the reduction and substitution of corn and soybean meal is still in its infancy.
    Except that leading companies such as Wen's and Lihua have achieved results in the optimization of feed formulations, most feed factories and breeding companies do not pay much attention to the substitution and optimization of feed formulations.

      If the substitution problem of corn and soybean meal cannot be effectively solved, the breeding efficiency of breeding enterprises in the future will still be continuously affected by fluctuations in the international food market
