[opinion]
After the festival, supply and demand are tight, and pig prices continue to bottom. According to the data of zhuyitong, on February 11, the price of live pigs was 12.27 yuan / kg, with a year-on-year decrease of 13.83%. In terms of regions, pig prices in Northeast China stabilized, while pig prices in other regions showed a downward trend. On the supply side, the number of fattening pigs aged 5 months in October increased by 34% year-on-year, and the listing time corresponds to the supply during the Spring Festival and after the festival. On the demand side, consumer demand is lower than that before the festival. We believe that supply and demand are tight after the festival, and pig prices continue to bottom out.
Carry out breeding innovation, strict variety management, and enterprises with core breeding ability are expected to benefit.
In the 14th five year plan to promote agricultural and rural modernization, we launched the implementation of key core technologies of agricultural seed sources, and established a variety “ID card” system. At the same time, with the revision and formal implementation of relevant approval laws and regulations, we believe that this will help to improve the threshold of seed variety approval, protect the intellectual property rights of seed enterprises with the ability of first mover innovation, and the concentration of seed industry is expected to be further improved.
Investment advice
Pig breeding: the lowest price of pork this week was 12.27 yuan / kg, which was the low level since mid October 2021, significantly lower than the industry cost line, and most pig enterprises were in a state of loss. It is suggested to pay attention to breeding enterprises with significant cost control advantages, loose capital and stable operation.
Seed industry: the implementation of variety approval regulations is imminent, which is expected to be conducive to the intellectual property protection of seed enterprises with first mover innovation ability, and the concentration of seed industry is expected to be further improved. It is suggested to pay attention to seed enterprises with core breeding ability.
