Why does the price of meat not fall when the cost is low?

Introduction: "it's said that the purchase price of pigs has dropped a lot, but why not the price of meat in the market?" On November 11, the author visited the pork market in Yanping City, Nanping City In Shengli farmer's market, Zhixin supermarket, Xinmin supermarket and some scattered pork stalls in the city, the author found that the price of vegetable pig meat has been rising since the end of last year, and it is still high Take soft chops as an example The selling price of Shengli farmer's market is about 24.5 yuan / kg, that of scattered pork stands is about 22 yuan / kg, and that of supermarkets and "baopai" safe meat cabinets is about 18 yuan The price is basically the same as that of August this year However, the survey information from Yanping animal husbandry and aquaculture Bureau confirmed that the recent purchase price of pigs has dropped from 5.25 yuan per kilogram to 5 yuan compared with August this year The purchase price of pigs has fallen First, the price of main feed corn is reduced by 0.2 yuan per kilogram, and that of soybean meal is reduced by 0.1 yuan per kilogram Second, this year, large pig farmers in Yanping District expanded their breeding scale, with more output and naturally low selling price The purchase price of pigs has fallen Why doesn't the price of pork go down? According to industry analysis, there are two main reasons: first, most of the pig export In the past two years, Yanping District, as a large animal husbandry area in our province, has made great efforts to create pollution-free meat and vegetable pigs This year, it is estimated that 600000 pigs will be sold in the whole district, 100000 more than last year, which can be purchased and sold by Fu, Xia, Quan, Zhang, Sanming and Ningde regions, accounting for 70-80% of the total, "domestic sales" is only about 20-30%, and the market supply is somewhat tight Second, those engaged in pig "domestic sales" think that the domestic market cake is so big, there is no external impact, no worries about the market, and therefore no price reduction
