Pork prices have risen for nine consecutive weeks and returned to more than 10 yuan. Will pork prices continue to rise in the future? With the improvement of people's living standards, the demand for pork has naturally increased; the fluctuation of prices is mainly affected by the relationship between supply and demand. It is obvious that supply exceeds demand, which is a typical seller's market. To be honest, the price should have been increased a long time ago. The normal price of pork is about 13-16 yuan. Only at this price can we maintain a basic balance in all aspects. The price of pork is too low. The losses are to the farms and the people who raise pigs. It is okay for a period of time, but long-term losses will lead to the collapse of the pig industry, and the direct result will be a sharp increase in pork prices. In the end, we will lose. Only when everyone makes money can we maintain long-term stability.

It is unrealistic to replace imported pigs. Half of the world’s pigs are eaten in China. If we want to make up for the domestic gap, the international pig price will rise sharply, perhaps even more than it is now. Those who didn’t raise chickens before now do so, and those who raised chickens before now have more chickens. Thousands of troops don’t need to go to the single-plank bridge. It’s like, senior management companies can’t just recruit workers in 985 and 211, they still have to leave some way for other schools. Excellent resources can’t just concentrate in first-tier cities, they still have to go to third- and fourth-tier cities. The points are the same for lower-tier cities, shifting the demand for protein to other meats and waiting for pork prices to pick up.

If you are a small household and want to rely on the traditional method of raising pigs, this is not recommended. I heard a piece of news before that the educational requirement for pig farmers in the Netherlands is now a doctorate. They adopt the standard assembly line method of raising pigs and leave everything to data and AI technology to raise pigs. Five PhD students can look after tens of thousands of pigs. Huge profits will inevitably lead to the invasion of giants to achieve large-scale assembly line production. If you don’t have some core technology, it’s better not to try it. Even though pork is so expensive now, no one is raising it. Not only did the number of piglets increase from 2,000 to more than 8,000, but they were also afraid of having to raise them again after half a year of hard work.
