"Pig prices have indeed fallen a bit fast in recent months," he said.

The main reason for the recent sharp drop in pig prices is the significant increase in live pigs for slaughter and the decline in pork consumption after the Spring Festival.

　　"According to the trend of pig prices throughout the year, around the Dragon Boat Festival, with the increase in pork consumption, pig prices may rise.
But based on the number of newborn piglets in the early period, it is estimated that in the second quarter, the number of fat pigs on the national scale pig farms will be slaughtered.
The year-on-year increase will reach 50%.
The market supply is generally abundant, and the price is unlikely to exceed the previous high.
" He said.
