Collection of agricultural prices of friends should know that in recent days domestic hog prices soared, to know the basic price of pigs is only 6 yuan more than the average price is now a day up 0.5 yuan, the largest increase in the region of a day up 1.

After this round of rise, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, Hainan, several areas of the price of pigs have broken 8, in addition , Guangxi, Shandong, Beijing, Tianjin, Jiangsu, Jiangxi, Hunan, Chongqing, Sichuan several areas also rose to more than 7.5 yuan.

The current price, for some self-breeding and production performance is more ideal for the farm, basically can be capital preservation.

The main reasons for stimulating this round of hog price hike: 1, the policy of boosting the role of the terminal market is reflected.

2, pork consumption, although not ideal, but by the impact of the epidemic, the northern hogs south of the difficulties, pork supply imbalance, promote prices.

3, the number of imported meat has decreased sharply, with only 420,000 tons of meat imported in the first quarter.

4, the recent price of piglets rose more than 100 yuan a head, giving birth to the second fattening, reducing the number of hogs out of the pen, in addition to some farms to supplement the reserve sows also reduced the number of hogs out of the pen.

For the follow-up pig prices, there are two voices in the market, one believes that the pigs available for slaughter are still at a high level, the price of pigs is only temporary, and will fall later.

The other believes that hog prices after nearly a year of sluggish operation, capacity adjustment has been basically completed, this rise is the beginning of a new round of rising cycle.

The author believes that hog production capacity has indeed declined, but to say is the beginning of a new upward cycle may be premature, the capacity is now at a high level, consumption has not been restored, the market does not exist in the base of a sustained rise in pig prices in the subsequent May and June pig prices are likely to fall again, but in July and August pig prices are hopeful that with the consumption of the obvious recovery to enter the real upward cycle.

By the recent rise in pig prices, pork prices have also ushered in a rising market, the lowest when the average wholesale price of pork in China was about 9 yuan, has now rebounded to 9.18 yuan, compared with the previous day rose 0.9%.

Two, chicken took over

Pork prices rose, chicken prices in recent days also ushered in a sharp rise in the price of white chicken at 9.19 yuan, up 2.6% compared with the previous day.

And the market's gross chicken prices have also risen significantly, with the price of broiler chickens now rising to about 4.6 yuan in Shandong, 4.55-4.6 yuan in the northeast, 4.6-4.7 yuan in Yu-Shaanxi and 4.6-4.7 yuan in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei.

The biggest change in the broiler market recently is not in the price of broilers, but in the price of chicks, chick prices rose sharply, indicating that the market has begun to accept the view that subsequent price increases, farmers replenishment enthusiasm is relatively high.

Additionally, the rise in chick prices indicates that the market listing of chicks is low, which also contributes to the subsequent rise in broiler prices.

Considering the relatively short cycle of broiler farming, which is greatly affected by the price of hogs, it is expected that the subsequent broiler prices will also rise and fall with the rise and fall of hog prices.

Three, but the price of beef and mutton is falling

The latest news shows that the current price of mutton is 35.07 yuan, the same as the previous day, and the price of beef is 28.31 yuan, a decline of 0.2% from the previous day.

Why are pork and chicken prices rising while beef and lamb prices are falling?

The main reason is that at the moment, the supply of beef and mutton in China is relatively abundant, while the end consumption is not so good.

Pig prices began to fall from June last year, but China's cattle and sheep prices have been relatively firm, especially cattle prices have been relatively high, which led to a number of pig farmers to turn to raise cattle and sheep, so that China's cattle and sheep farming volume significantly higher, the current sheep farming volume has been in excess, cattle farming volume is also at a high level, the supply of beef and mutton is at a high level.

But the consumption of beef and mutton has been hit by a big drop in the price of pork, pork is now less than 10 yuan a catty, while beef and mutton need about 30 yuan a catty, a huge price difference so that consumers have to choose more cheap pork and chicken.

Supply and demand *** with the same pressure, resulting in the domestic price of beef cattle and live sheep, the price of beef and mutton also fell.

It is expected that there will not be a big drop in China's beef and mutton prices before pig and meat prices rise sharply.

May, fertilizer prices to be reduced?

By the international situation is unstable, domestic supply constraints and other factors, from the end of last year to now China's fertilizer prices have been at a high level, the price of fertilizer compared to the previous also rose significantly, the farmers spit out that although the price of food has risen, but fertilizers and other agricultural prices, so that the farmer's earnings did not rise significantly.

In order to protect the farmers to plant the basic income, recently held a press conference of the National Development and Reform Commission, experts also on the high price of fertilizers, fertilizers and other agricultural supplies to give a clear statement.

Currently the status quo of China's fertilizers is that the supply of nitrogen and phosphate fertilizers are guaranteed, but potash fertilizers need to be partially imported to meet the demand, however, in the guidance of potash fertilizer enterprises to increase production, put 1 million tons of potash reserves and other factors, potash fertilizer prices have been shown to be stable in the decline of the situation.

May, fertilizer prices will likely continue to decline, because the state in many ways under the force, such as promoting the resumption of production enterprises to resume production, urging energy companies to protect the energy supply of fertilizer companies, improve the transportation capacity of fertilizer and production of raw materials, urging enterprises to the market as soon as possible to put the reserve of fertilizers to speed up the circulation of fertilizers and efficiency, to strengthen the market supervision, and rigorous investigation of the fertilizer market violations, and so on.

And the fundamental purpose of these is to protect the normal supply of fertilizer in China, prompting the high price of fertilizer back down.
