A friend of a pig's, how hard it has been for most of the year。
Many growers have spent most of their years trying to sell their pigs, their feed costs are high, they lose their heads, they can't sleep at night, and many bite their teeth to get rid of the pigs. But just as we were about to blow, the pigs' prices had recently begun to sneak up, prices had gone up and down, and there had been a big change, and there was hope and drumming: is this wave going to be a real turning point, or is it a fake
Golden sentence 1: pig cycles never fail to profit, but rising does not mean that money can be made immediately。
Golden sentence 2: in the short term, the price of pigs rises and falls, and in the long term, the ability to earn a living。
Golden sentence 3: break your head out of the heat, and it's the farmer's reason。
To be honest, the price of this round of pigs is not so high as to be made out of air, with real market changes behind it, but without blind optimism。
According to publicly available data from the ministry of agriculture and rural development, since july 2025, the country has been able to keep the stock of pigs down for many months, and by the end of the second quarter of 2026 it had fallen back to a reasonable stock holding area, with the number of pigs left behind naturally decreasing and the supply side starting to tighten. The price of pigs continued to fall in the first half of the year, many farmers put up with the pain of selling big fat pigs, and now there is a small stock of over 300 pounds of big fat pigs on the market, a partial shortage of supplies, and the slaughterhouse has had to raise the price of pigs, which is the central reason for the price increase。
Two real traceable market cases are shared here。
Case i: the market in kawasu region has seen a marked shortage of fat pigs since mid-august, with a difference of $1. 8 to $2 per kilogram between over 150 kg of fat and common pig. It is also a microcosm of the national market that a number of butchers are unable to collect fat, proactively raise their prices, and that part of the local diaspora is in a state of panic and wait-and-see state。
Case two: a number of large pig farms in shandong have been actively reducing the number of fatty pigs under pressure of long-term losses in the preceding period. According to local industry research, many pig farms actively phased out inefficient pigs in the second quarter, did not blindly fill the bars and were sent directly to august, when the number of out-posted pigs decreased significantly compared to the second quarter, supporting a steady rise in local pig prices。
But my point is here: it's warm, it's not like it's a total rollover, and it's not yet time to close eyes and expand。
Now, while the price of pigs is moving upwards, the prices of corn and soybean feed are still strong, and the cost of farming remains high in most areas. Many farmers are still on the verge of micro- or small losses, and are not immediately making money by raising prices. And now that the consumption end has not fully erupted, the consumption dividend of the mid-autumn and national days has not yet been fully released, and prices will fluctuate as soon as they are subsequently concentrated。
Some have seen price increases and thought that it would be very risky to catch a pig for a second time. The price of pigs is rising fast and falling as clean as possible, so don't let the short-term situation pass. The state has also introduced a new version of the programme to regulate the production of pig products in the wider environment, leading to rational growth in the industry and avoiding a large drop in production capacity。
