Recently, the country will put in reserve frozen pork. How long will this pork be stored? Is there a shelf life? You will understand after reading this

The price of pigs has been rising since August. Many people complain that pork is rising too fast now. Some people stopped buying pork for several days and ate other meats instead. And the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. The demand for pork increases during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Today is also the first day of the school season. This is also when the demand for pork is gradually increasing. In the current environment where pigs are in very short supply. Then the price of pork will definitely rise in the future.

The Ministry of Commerce recently stated in a press conference. In order to stabilize the current pig price market and curb the rapid rise in pig prices, we will work with relevant departments to release pork reserves in a timely manner. On August 28, the first batch of reserve pork was released in Haikou, with 1,520 kilograms released that day. And prices have dropped. For example, the minimum price of pork belly is only 17 yuan and 99 yuan. Compared with the current price of pork, it is indeed a few dollars cheaper. I also bought pork this morning and asked about the price. The price is still 22 yuan per pound. The boss said that there is not a lot of pork now. Maybe it will rise to 25 yuan during the Mid-Autumn Festival due to the huge demand.

In order to stabilize the pork price market during holidays. Therefore, the country will release a certain amount of frozen pork in a timely manner during major festivals and emergencies. This time, some frozen pork will be released in various regions across the country, and the approximate time will be from August 28 to September 12. As for the approximate amount of investment? We don’t know yet. But as far as I know, starting from the beginning of this year, the country began to reserve frozen pork. It reserves about 100,000 tons of frozen pork every month. Now there are about 500,000 to 600,000 tons of frozen pork in reserve. How much can be released specifically? Let’s look at national decision-making. The introduction of pork this time will have a certain impact on the market and make the price of pork rise less quickly.

How long is reserved frozen pork usually stored? Is there a shelf life?

The answer is yes. The central pork reserve is mainly a live reserve, with a reserve cycle of four months and a rotation completed every four months. Stored at -18 degrees in the central meat reserve freezer, the shelf life of pork is 6 months. But reserve pork is not meat that has been stored for more than 6 months. Instead, during the process of storing frozen pork and selling it, the flowing frozen meat will be constantly replaced. Therefore, these frozen pork will be continuously replaced. Frozen pork will not last longer than 6 months. Moreover, the demand for pork is now huge, and it is sold out as soon as it is put out, so there will be no expiration issue for the time being. In supermarkets now, some of the money for pork is reserved frozen pork. Everyone should be aware of this. (Pictures come from the Internet)
