Stable and declining pig prices in Hunan Province (4.17)

OA show ('918 '); Hunan Province has gradually entered the peak season of pig sales According to the comprehensive situation of Hunan Provincial Food Corporation, the total number of pigs on hand in the whole province has decreased and the price of pigs has been stable After the Spring Festival, the purchase price of pigs in the whole province has generally declined Now the purchase price per 50 kg is about 300 yuan, down 4.77% from 315 yuan in January In recent days, the price of fresh meat in some markets in Changsha is only 5 yuan per 500g, 1 yuan lower than the previous period According to the analysis of the food sector, the main reasons for the decline in pig prices are: first, supply exceeds demand In the first half of last year, there was abundant supply of pigs, because the price of pigs rose month by month in the second half of last year, which stimulated farmers to develop pig production Although the total number of stocks in the province has declined, there is still more supply than demand By the middle of February, there were 1.96 million pigs on hand, down 5.5% year on year However, in Changde, Yiyang, Yueyang in the north of Hunan and Huaihua and Autonomous Prefecture in the west of Hunan, the number of pigs weighing more than 100 kg increased by nearly 40% compared with the same period last year When the season comes to peak, they need to be sold more intensively, which makes it difficult to sell more 2 Poor circulation Since this year, the number of Hunan pigs sold to Guangdong has been further reduced In the past, Hunan pigs were mainly sold to Guangdong, followed by Guangxi, with an annual output of about 30 million Now, due to the improvement of pig quality in Henan, Anhui, Sichuan and other provinces, the market has expanded, occupying a part of the market of Hunan pigs sold to Guangdong Third, the speed of the development of Hunan pig product reform is slow, and some pigs are difficult to adapt to the requirements of consumers for lean pigs 4 Part of the people's pork consumption has been reduced, and they have turned to herbivores, fish and eggs The weather is getting warmer, and pork is even more stagnant According to the analysis and prediction of the insiders, there are 10.82 million pigs available for sale in Hunan in the second quarter, 3.7% less than the same period last year, but the development of pigs in different regions is not balanced According to the analysis of the current situation of pig stocks in some regions, it is expected that the whole province will still have a concentrated pig market in the second quarter, and the price will fall back, but the possibility of large fluctuation is not great, and the price is still not likely It's a steady trend STQ (author:)
