    Introduction: only a decade ago, feed was only understood as poultry and livestock food made of wheat bran, rice bran, crushed straw, etc But today feed has completely gone out of the traditional concept of the past, and become a huge market, connected with thousands of households of daily industrial products It can be said that people are dealing with this product consciously or unconsciously In recent years, the price of eggs and pork in the feed market has continued to fall, which has become the focus of the public and the media What is the reason for this situation? According to the investigation of relevant departments, the reason for the drop in the prices of eggs and pork is not only that with the economic development and the emergence of a large number of farmers, the relationship between supply and demand has changed, but also that feed enterprises have emerged in large numbers in recent years, with fierce competition and feed prices falling sharply The feed industry is in the ascendant, and farmers use traditional feed to feed poultry and livestock A few years ago, most farmers fed their chickens with raw food The laying rate of layers was low and the cost was high The way to raise pigs was to beat pig grass, dig pig vegetables, add bran and other raw materials, and then put them in pots and small barrels to feed But now the vast majority of farmers have gradually changed their way of feeding and accepted the new feed Because using scientific feed to raise chickens, the egg production rate is generally guaranteed to be more than 80%; it takes more than three months to raise pigs with about 2 kg of feed per day, which can grow to about 100 kg, and the ratio of feed to meat reaches 4:1-3:1 This kind of feeding result is far from the traditional feed, no wonder the majority of farmers have chosen to use the new feed The rapid development of feed industry provides favorable guarantee for the prosperity of breeding industry and the richness of residents' vegetable basket In the past 20 years, the growth of China's feed industry is far less than that of meat, egg and milk Taking Handan city of Hebei Province as an example, from 1995 to now, the average growth of grain is about 4%, while the average growth of meat, egg and milk in the same period is 32%, 42% and 36% respectively The main reason is that the annual average growth of feed use reached 210% It can be seen that the prosperity of feed market directly benefits consumers and enriches the food basket of the majority of residents With the development of feed market, feed industry has become a new industry In order to support the development of feed enterprises, the state gives special preferential policies to feed enterprises For example, the preferential policies such as exemption of value-added tax and income tax have made the feed industry have a considerable scale at present In addition to well-known enterprises in China, such as the processing plants and new hope group set up by Zhengda Group in Thailand, different brands of feed processing enterprises have also been set up in different places Nowadays, feed industry has developed into a complete feed industry system including feed processing, feed resources, additive industry, feed machinery, feed research, feed management and other branches The development of feed industry is also reflected in the continuous improvement of feed production level, production capacity and varieties In recent years, in addition to variety diversification, the level of granulation and concentration of feed processing has been greatly improved, and the scientific and technological content has been greatly increased In particular, the introduction of refined feed makes it more convenient for farmers to choose There are feed for layers, feed for broilers and feed for pigs in different production stages Feed market to solve the problem since the feed market prospects, demand is large, so why many feed processing enterprises are still struggling? In addition to brands, raw material supply and feed quality are among the biggest problems Feed grain is mainly made up of corn, soybean meal, fish meal, bone meal and various trace elements In recent years, due to the unstable price of corn, feed enterprises have a heavy burden on raw materials In 2000, when autumn grain was harvested, the price of corn was about 0.80 yuan per kilogram, and then the highest price rose to over 1.20 yuan per kilogram Last year's autumn grain went on the market The price of corn per kilogram was about 0.84 yuan At present, it has risen to more than 0.90 yuan In the future, the price depends on the trend of the market and the change of the relationship between supply and demand Due to the unstable supply price of corn as the main raw material, many feed enterprises, especially small and medium-sized feed processing enterprises, have been in the state of stop production and half stop production It seems that the restructuring of feed enterprises is inevitable The situation of feed market is bound to lead to the rise of feed price However, due to the fierce competition, some small and medium-sized enterprises, in order to occupy the market, have taken the approach of reducing production quality without price reduction, which is actually digging their own grave for enterprises At present, many feed varieties in the market are of different quality In some products, illegal traders even mix a large amount of silt and sawdust to serve as feed, which deceives the majority of farmers and kills the livestock Not long ago, Handan industrial and commercial department and technical supervision department jointly seized a batch of poor feed to avoid the loss of farmers It seems that the feed market is both happy and worried It is imperative and urgent to speed up the standardization of the market.
