　　For the market trend of live pigs in the next period
.
Kong Liang said that the live pig market supply "looks at piglets in the mid-term, and sows in the long-term"
.
Since March, the number of newborn piglets per month in large-scale pig farms has been more than 30 million, and it has continued to grow
.
From August to September, the national stock of reproductive sows was close to 110% of the normal stock
.
It is expected that the number of fat pigs on the market from the fourth quarter of this year to the first quarter of next year will increase significantly year-on-year, and the relative oversupply of live pigs will continue for a period of time.
If the production capacity is not substantially reduced, the pig price downturn will be difficult to reverse, especially after the Spring Festival next year.
In the low season of consumption, pig prices may continue to fall, causing heavy losses in pig breeding

　　Kong Liang said that it is the direction and focus of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs to prevent the ups and downs of live pig production and iron the "pig cycle" as much as possible
.
Starting in June, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has intensively issued warning messages through mainstream media and industry media in response to signs of overcapacity in pigs, guiding farms (households) to speed up the elimination of low-yielding sows, and orderly arranging pigs for slaughter
.
Subsequently, in conjunction with relevant departments, the "Opinions on Promoting the Sustainable and Healthy Development of the Pig Industry" were issued, and the "Implementation Plan for Pig Production Capacity Regulation (Temporary)" was issued in an effort to stabilize the order of pig production
.
Since July, the number of reproductive sows in the country has ended its growth momentum and has decreased from the previous month for three consecutive months
.
At present, some breeding companies, especially large group companies, have adopted measures such as "ten sows to eliminate one low-yielding sow, one litter of piglets and one weaker piglet, and fattening pigs to be released ten days in advance.
" The positive effect is worth learning from

.
At the same time, maintain the stability of long-term support policies such as land use, environmental protection, loans, and insurance, and refrain from making “rapid turns” and “turning biscuits” to prevent damage to basic production capacity and affect long-term stable supply in the market
