It is now early January in 2023. After the New Year’s Day holiday, the grassroots pig market has experienced a series of violent fluctuations.

Based on the current fluctuations in pig prices at the grassroots level, the mainstream quotations for live pigs have now fallen to the lowest level in the past six months.

The continuous decline in pig prices must be very anxious for each of us farmers.

Especially during the Spring Festival, if pig prices do not see an improvement, farmers are likely to face an increasing risk of losses.

However, according to the latest price adjustments by pig slaughtering companies, grassroots pig prices have begun to usher in a new round of favorable changes, and the overall falling market is improving.

Now the mainstream quotations for live pigs in some areas in the south are also recovering to a certain extent.

Today, the Pig God of Wealth will focus on collecting the latest trends in pig and grain prices before the Spring Festival.

For our majority of farmers, the state has also made a new round of important requirements for the pig grain market, and the relevant measures of two increases and one adjustment will also be fully implemented.

Let’s talk about the specific situation together.

As the Spring Festival approaches, although the pig market at the grassroots level is still showing violent fluctuations, the price adjustments of pig slaughtering companies have been loosened.

According to the latest price adjustment actions by butcher companies, pig prices in Shandong, Anhui, Jiangsu, Hubei, Henan, Beijing, Tianjin, Shanxi, Hebei, Shaanxi and other places have officially experienced an increase. However, the current The number of provinces declining is still high.

According to the current big data monitoring situation of the live pig market, the current mainstream purchase price of live pigs at the grassroots level remains at 14.74~15.54 yuan per kilogram; the prices of corn and soybean meal have increased and decreased, and the current price of soybean meal remains at 5,079 yuan per kilogram. tons, a month-on-month decrease of 6.12.

Based on the current mainstream pig quotations, the pig-to-grain ratio at the grassroots level is now maintained at 5.27:1, and farmers’ profits from pig breeding remain at around 300 yuan per head.

And according to the current trend of changes in the pig-to-grain ratio, the current pig-to-grain ratio is a new low in the past six months.

For the farmers who have always chosen to cover the fence and carry the price for secondary fattening, they have begun to face the risk of losses.

The main reason why the current grassroots pig prices are experiencing such violent fluctuations is related to the continued selling of pigs by some centralized pig farms.

Many farmers may be very confused, why are pig prices so low and group pig farms still choose to sell pigs? In the final analysis, it is affected by the financial reports of listed companies.

In order to withdraw funds as quickly as possible to complete their annual business goals, some listed large-scale breeding companies can only choose to continue selling pigs.

Under the influence of the loose short-term supply and demand relationship, pig prices will naturally continue to fluctuate.

Zhu Caishen believes that the current fluctuations in pig prices do not represent the long-term trend of pig prices in the future. After this drop in pig prices, it is believed that the pig price market will receive a series of positive improvements before the Spring Festival. Policy regulation will also continue to increase.

Compared with the market pattern of pig prices, the pattern of grain prices has also ushered in new changes in recent times.

At present, the corn market in Shandong, North China and other places is still showing fluctuations, but more and more grain processing companies in the Northeast have begun to increase corn purchase prices.

Now pig and grain prices are experiencing a series of price increases, which once again indicates to us that there will be more favorable changes in grain and pig prices before the Spring Festival.

According to the regulatory requirements at the national policy level, in the future, the country will continue to promote a series of policies to stabilize prices and ensure supply.

It is expected that measures related to the two increases and one adjustment will also be fully implemented.

There are three pieces of good news that I hope the majority of farmers can understand.

Good news 1: From now until the Spring Festival, the state will continue to increase supervision of grain prices and pig prices.

Especially in the current pig market, if pig prices fall too sharply or too fast, the state will also formulate a series of favorable measures to ensure that pig and grain prices can operate smoothly.

Good news 2: As the Spring Festival approaches, national families’ consumption demand for meat will usher in further changes.

Although currently affected by the mysterious cloning pandemic, the demand for meat consumption in some areas is relatively sluggish, but this is only a short-term process; now more and more people have begun to recover, and during the Spring Festival holiday Among them, retaliatory consumption is likely to reappear, and pig prices will also gain stronger momentum to increase prices.

Good news 3: In recent days, the National Development and Reform Commission has made clear requirements that it will continue to vigorously monitor the grassroots market and actively formulate a series of policies to smooth the logistics channels for key agricultural products.

This will also help improve the efficiency of transportation in the pig market and grain market. At that time, the benefits of consumption will also directly drive up the price of pigs and grain prices.

Judging from the above three good news, before the Spring Festival, the market situation of grain prices and pig prices will remain relatively stable under the protection of policy-level regulation.

We have reason to believe that the current bottom-line pig price will usher in a rebound.

I still urge everyone to take action, click on the "Looking" button in the lower right corner at the end of the article, and give a thumbs up to the country's series of control policies on pig and grain prices.
