The live pig market will still be sluggish, stabilizing policies, regulating production capacity and responding to the new one...

Since mid-January this year, due to the gradual increase in the supply of live pigs, the price of live pigs has generally entered a downward channel, which has aroused widespread concern in the society

The number of live pigs is sufficient to optimize the production of sows and the growth inertia will continue to be sluggish

According to statistics from the National Bureau of Statistics, there were 439 million live pigs at the end of June, basically the same as the 440 million at the end of 2017

According to the relevant person in charge of the Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Bureau, from the perspective of market conditions, the supply of pork has increased so much that prices are still falling in the peak consumption season

In order to cope with the market downturn, most pig farms (households) choose to slow down their production pace and optimize their sow inventory adjustments

At present, production is still growing inertially

The reporter learned that as the National Day approaches, pork consumption will usher in the traditional peak season, which may alleviate the recent rapid decline in pig prices to a certain extent; but from the current supply and demand situation, the national pork market has sufficient supply and prices have rebounded sharply.

Relevant persons in charge put forward suggestions and reminders: "The price of pork is now very low.

"Pig cycle" is widespread, the key is to strengthen industrial regulation and improve industrial quality

The relevant person in charge introduced that the "pig cycle" is a manifestation of the price adjustment of the resource allocation of the pig industry.

It is understood that since the new century, China's pig production has experienced 5 abnormal fluctuations.

"Pork supply is tight, and the whole society is paying great attention.

Maintain policy stability, accelerate the establishment of a production capacity control mechanism, etc.

Relevant person in charge introduced: "This round of hog production has been abnormally fluctuating, which has pushed up pork prices.

First of all, the overall quality of the pig industry is higher

Second, the relevant policy guarantee system has been improved

In addition, from the competent department to the farmers, the industry as a whole has a stronger ability to deal with sudden and major challenges

In the next step, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs will mainly start from three aspects to promote the sustainable and healthy development of live pig production

First, maintain the stability of long-term support policies
.
Now that production has resumed and supply has been loosened, some places have begun to "turn sharply" and "turn over biscuits" in policy.
This is very dangerous
.
The production cycle of live pigs is long.
Once the production capacity drops severely, it will take at least one and a half years to recover, and it will cost a lot
.
Therefore, the more difficult it is for pig farms (households) to operate, the more it is necessary to maintain the continuous stability of long-term support policies in terms of breeding land, environmental impact assessment, and finance, so as to avoid excessive elimination of breeding mothers by pig farms (households).
Pigs damage the basic production capacity
.

Second, establish a production capacity control mechanism
.
A few days ago, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has issued the "Implementation Plan for Pig Production Capacity Regulation (Interim)", which takes the change in the stock of reproductive sows as the core control indicator, and adheres to the principles of early warning, regulation, timely intervention, and precise policy implementation.
The province is responsible for stabilizing production and supply and the mayor of the "vegetable basket" is responsible for the system, refines the task of "three grasps and two guarantees", establishes pig production capacity control bases at different levels, builds a counter-cyclical control mechanism for pig production that is linked up and down and responds in time, and continuously improves pork Supply security capabilities
.

Third, promote the high-quality development of the pig industry
.
Judging from foreign experience, accelerating the establishment of a modern pig industry is the fundamental prerequisite for alleviating and extending the "pig cycle" and avoiding the ups and downs of live pig production
.
It is necessary to build a modern pig breeding system, a modern animal disease prevention and control system, and a modern livestock product processing and distribution system, promote the green and circular development of the pig industry, and improve the quality and efficiency competitiveness of the pig industry
