Han Changfu introduced that since this year, due to the superposition of factors such as the decline of the 'pig cycle', the impact of African pig plague and local environmental protection restrictions, the stock of pigs and fertile sows has declined to a large extent, and the prices of pigs and pork have increased significantly.
The Ministry of agriculture and rural areas, together with the seven departments of the State Council, has issued a package of support to stabilize the government's resumption of production, including 17 articles, such as canceling the delimitation of no breeding areas beyond the scope, increasing the guarantee of breeding land, bringing pork transportation into the green channel and financial support. This combination of policies has helped boost market confidence. " Han Changfu said that recently, farmers' enthusiasm to supplement fences and increase breeding has increased significantly.
Han Changfu also said that since October this year, the national breeding sow stock has stopped falling and rebounded month on month, and the decline of pig stock has narrowed significantly month on month. Since November, pig and pork prices have begun to fall.
"This year, poultry, beef and mutton have seen considerable growth, and the meat market supply is generally guaranteed. In the future, with the further implementation and implementation of supporting policies and the favorable pull of market conditions, pig production will gradually resume. " Han Changfu said.
