01. Pork as low as 3.98 yuan?

Recently, in a supermarket in Xinyang, the promotional price of pork at 3.98 yuan/jin flooded the Internet. I saw people in the supermarket queuing up to buy pork, for fear of not being able to grab it. After all, many vegetables in supermarkets now cost 5-6 yuan per pound, and pork for less than 4 yuan naturally attracts a large number of people.

According to the person in charge of the supermarket, this is a promotion held during the National Day, and 50 pigs can be sold every day, but the supply is still in short supply, and many people come to rush to buy. Netizens also said that the price of pork in their local area is indeed much cheaper.

For example, Xinxiang netizens said that local pork is 8.5 yuan per catty, Zhumadian supermarket front leg meat is 10.8 yuan per catty, Luoshan pork is 7.5 yuan/catty, Dawu County pork belly is 11.9 yuan/catty, and Nanyang pork is as low as 5 Yuan/jin, Dongguan pork 12 yuan/jin, Guangshan pork 6.8 yuan/jin, Siping Yitong County 4.99 yuan/jin, Luoyang 6.8 yuan/jin

From the comments of netizens, it can be seen that pork retail in most places across the country The price has dropped to less than 10 yuan, and supermarket promotions in some areas have prices below 7 yuan. It has to be said that today’s meat prices have returned to normal levels in previous years, but pig farmers are suffering heavy losses.

In previous years, the cost of raising pigs was only 5 yuan, but this year the cost of slaughtering pigs is about 8 yuan. Now the retail price of pork is only 8 yuan, and the price of raw pigs has dropped to 4-5 yuan/jin. It can be seen that pig farmers Selling a pig costs 700 to 800 yuan, and the price is a headache.

For pig farmers, raising pigs after a year of hard work has ended with heavy losses, and many people have given up on pig farming. Some people are curious. The price of pigs rises every year during the "Golden Nine and Silver Ten" periods. Why can't it fall this year?

In the final analysis, the price of pigs has soared in the past two years. A pig can earn about 2,500 yuan, which has attracted a large number of people to breed. However, in the short term, production capacity has recovered rapidly and the market has been oversupplied, so pig prices have declined. decline. But today's pork consumption is not strong, and the market is deserted, which has suppressed prices.

However, with the 30,000 tons purchase and storage approaching on October 10, it is expected that the price of pigs may still rise in the future, so don’t be too discouraged.

02. Egg prices keep falling

Starting from the end of July, egg prices began to rise, rising to the 5 yuan mark in a short period of time. However, in mid- to late August, egg prices continued to rise. The price has dropped back to around 4.5 yuan. At this price, egg farmers still make considerable profits. At the end of August, egg prices started a new round of rise, which lasted until the Mid-Autumn Festival. The price at the place of origin rose to 4.93 yuan/jin, and the retail price in the market also rose to 5-6 yuan/jin.

However, after the Mid-Autumn Festival, the market demand for eggs was insufficient, and egg prices began to fall. They have continued to fall to this day. In many places, they have fallen to the 3 yuan mark. It can be seen that egg prices have ushered in a "big dive" .

Judging from today’s egg prices, the price of eggs in Guangzhou has dropped to 4.45-4.55 yuan/jin; the price of eggs in Northeast China is 4.04-4.2 yuan/jin; the price of eggs in Henan has dropped to 4.07-4.13 yuan/jin; The egg price in Hebei was 3.96-4.11 yuan/jin; the egg price in Shandong fell by 0.05-0.11 yuan to 3.89-4 yuan/jin, and the egg price in Jiangsu and Anhui dropped to 4.03-4.22 yuan/jin.

The recent decline in egg prices is ultimately due to the fact that egg merchants are not too enthusiastic about purchasing. The market is purchasing according to demand, while inventory has accumulated. Egg farmers are actively shipping, which has suppressed egg prices. In the short term, the egg market will continue to be weak. After all, the temperature has begun to fall, the egg production rate has increased, and the elimination rate of old chickens is not high. As a result, there are more laying hens, and there will be no good stimulus in the future. Egg prices I'm afraid it will continue to run weakly.

03. Cattle and sheep prices collectively fell

Since late May, the cattle and sheep market has started a downward trend, with the live cattle market falling to 16-17 yuan/jin. , the price of live sheep has plummeted, falling to 12-13 yuan/jin. For cattle farmers, the profit of one cow is reduced by 3,000 yuan, but for sheep farmers, one sheep will lose 200 yuan.

However, starting in September, the sales of beef and mutton increased, coupled with the restrictions on beef imports, the result was that the market for live cattle and sheep was also driven up, among which live cattle were 18-19 yuan/jin, and one cow could be sold. 28,000 yuan, the profit can reach 8,000-10,000 yuan. During this wave of rise, the price of sheep also rose to 15-16 yuan per pound, and sheep farmers entered a profit state.

However, since the National Day, although the price of beef and mutton on the market can be sold for about 45-50 yuan, the price of live cattle and sheep has fallen again. Now the price of beef cattle has dropped to 16.5-17.8 yuan/jin, which is about 1-2 yuan lower than in September. The market price of live sheep has also dropped to 13-14 yuan. For example, the price of Yanwo fattening sheep is 13.8 yuan per catty, the price of Tangxian Xinmin sheep is 13.9 yuan per catty, and the price of Shanxi fattening sheep has also fallen to 13.5 yuan.

Of course, the prices of high-quality varieties are still high, such as Qingdao Han sheep at 16 yuan/jin, Huaibei Hu sheep at 17.5 yuan/jin, and Liuzhou goat at 19 yuan/jin.

At the same time that the breeding industry collectively fell sharply, the feed market ushered in another wave of rise. It turns out that due to the arrival of the "power rationing order", feed processing capacity is limited. Although the price of corn has gradually declined, with the average price falling from 1.45 yuan to 1.26 yuan per pound, under this wave of "power rationing order", feed manufacturers collectively Price increases have been announced, such as Guangdong Nanbao, Zhaoqing Haid, Foshan HNA, etc., and chicken, duck, fish and pig feeds have increased by 50-100 yuan/ton, which makes the feeding costs of farmers continue to rise.

Next, farmers must find ways to reduce costs and reduce unnecessary expenditures. At the same time, everyone should also tend to breed high-quality species, so that the market will be less affected by the market and the profits will be higher.
