The annual demand peak season is coming, and the price of pigs is going down actively. By the end of the year, the two festivals are approaching, and the pig breeding industry is gradually entering the annual demand peak season. Recently, the production and sales data of November disclosed by listed aquaculture companies showed that the market price of live pigs in that month was down from the previous month. Zou Yingji, an analyst at Zhuo Chuang Information, believes that the overall price of live pigs in November showed a trend of first falling and then rising. In the first half of November, the mentality of some operators was relaxed, and the pig sources for secondary fattening in the early stage were released one after another, and the supply of pig sources in the market increased obviously. However, because the temperature did not drop significantly, the downstream receiving efforts were limited, and the terminal delivery speed was slow, and the market was in an oversupply situation, which led to the downward trend of pig prices in the first half of November. In the late stage, the temperature in some areas gradually decreased, and some southern markets started the curing action one after another, and the demand side improved slightly, which supported the price of live pigs to stop falling and rebound. However, because the cured meat is only opened sporadically, the increase of demand side is limited, and there is not much room for the rebound of pig prices. After entering December, the increase in domestic pig prices failed to continue. Zou Yingji believes that at present, in order to ensure the smooth completion of the annual slaughter plan, the enthusiasm for slaughtering pigs is high, and farmers also have large-weight pigs to be slaughtered or released in the pickling season. The supply of pigs may still be abundant in December.In addition to the front page content, today's People's Daily's main financial contents include: 1.
