Just after the New Year's Day holiday, there was a collective appearance of live pigs in many places across the country, making a good start for the pig price market in 2024. According to the monitoring of a lot of pig data, on January 1, the average price of three-yuan pigs outside the country was 1439 yuan kg, compared with yesterday's **010 yuan kg. Whether this round of pig price increases can continue to the Spring Festival has aroused widespread concern in the market.
From the perspective of geographical distribution, pig prices in the northern region have risen significantly. Among them, Jilin and Liaoning provinces in the northeast region rose significantly and re-entered the 14 yuan area. The Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region in North China has also been transferred to the ** channel. The northwest region continued to remain low, while pig prices in Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia and other places were steady**.
Pig prices in the southern region are also rising. Pig prices in Henan, Hunan and Hubei provinces in central China have increased. Although the pig price in Shandong and Fujian in East China has been transferred to the ** channel, it is still in the 14 yuan area. The pig price in Guangxi, Hainan and other places in South China has shown a slight **, while the pig price in Guangdong is temporarily in the 14 yuan area, and the momentum for rising in the short term is insufficient. Pig prices in Sichuan, Yunnan, Chongqing and other places in the southwest region have also seen varying degrees of **.
On the whole, the price of pigs in many places during the New Year's Day was mainly affected by the reduction of holidays and large-scale pig farm slaughter plans. However, judging from the increase, the momentum of the follow-up pig price ** seems to be insufficient. On the one hand, with the recovery of the rhythm of slaughter at the breeding end, the first may increase, resulting in the risk of pig prices. On the other hand, pork consumption demand in the winter market continues to be sluggish, and the support for pig prices is limited.
In the next 2-3 days, pig prices may continue to be dominated by consolidation. The market after New Year's Day will enter the peak consumption season before the Spring Festival, but from the overall market demand in December, the market consumption may be very limited to boost pig prices, and pig prices are difficult to increase too much. Therefore, it is very important for farmers to grasp the timing of slaughter and market trends to avoid losses.
