Subsequently, pork prices hit the bottom and rebounded for nearly two months.
Since December 2021, pork prices have entered a new round of decline. As of February 19, 2022, the price of live pigs (foreign three yuan) was 12.69 yuan / kg, down 65.6% from the high point at the beginning of last year.
In 2021, listed pig enterprises generally suffered losses. Among them, Jiangxi Zhengbang Technology Co.Ltd(002157) suffered the worst. The company is expected to lose 18.2 billion yuan to 19.7 billion yuan. From 2004 to 2020, the total annual net profit of the company was only 9.924 billion yuan.

farmers lost 300 yuan
According to the data released by the Ministry of agriculture and rural areas on February 17, the number of pigs sold nationwide increased significantly month on month and year-on-year in January, and the price of pigs decreased continuously.
According to the financial report of China Central Television, the data show that the number of pigs sold nationwide in January increased by 9.4% month on month and 23.6% year-on-year. On the one hand, farmers are generally bearish on the future market, reducing their weight and actively listing. On the other hand, the national pig production capacity is in phased excess.
Wang Zuli, chief expert of pig industry monitoring and early warning of the Ministry of agriculture and rural areas, said in an interview that pig production capacity gradually recovered last year and the high price fell. Although it rebounded briefly in the middle, it has declined continuously since December last year. Even in the traditional peak sales season in January, the price continued to decline. In January, the national pig price fell for four weeks, with a year-on-year decrease of more than 50%. After the Spring Festival, the consumption off-season entered, and the pig price accelerated its decline.
Wang Zuli pointed out that according to the latest data, pigs are 12.5 yuan per kilogram, and the pig breeding cost line we monitored is about 15.4 yuan per kilogram. Obviously, the price has fallen below the cost line. Recently, every commercial pig sold by farmers in the farm will lose more than 300 yuan.
Research Institution: at present, it is a good time to layout the pig sector
After falling prices, the pig breeding industry has received two pieces of good news recently: first, the state will start the collection and storage of pork reserves as appropriate; Second, the State Council issued the "14th five year plan for promoting agricultural and rural modernization", which proposed to improve the long-term mechanism for the stable and orderly development of the pig industry, promote standardized large-scale breeding, stabilize the pork production capacity at about 55 million tons, and prevent the ups and downs of production.
Some research institutions pointed out that since 2009, the central government has collected and stored about 18 times during the downward period of pork prices. To some extent, the purchase and storage has an emotional short-term boost to pork prices. In the week of storage, the average decline of pork was - 0.8%, the average increase in one week after storage was 0.8%, the average increase in two weeks after storage was 0.8%, and the average increase in four weeks after storage was 2.6%. However, in the medium and long term, pork prices still depend on the overall supply and demand pattern.
Many research institutions believe that the current is the best time point for the layout of the pig sector. Galaxy Securities said that at the end of January, the price of live pigs fell to 13.97 yuan / kg, significantly lower than the average breeding cost of the industry. The intensification of losses will further drive the industry to reduce production capacity, and the cumulative decline of fertile sows will gradually increase. At present, the pig price has bottomed out and the pace of capacity removal has been accelerated. At present, the investment risk of the sector is low and the safety margin is high. The market shows positive expectations. At present, it is the best time to allocate the pig breeding sector.
Guotai Junan Securities Co.Ltd(601211) also believes that the first quarter is the golden allocation period for pig breeding enterprises. The core reason is that short-term pigs are at a loss, the elimination of fertile sows will accelerate, and the stock price will form positive feedback in the process of acceleration.
Citic Securities Company Limited(600030) pointed out that at present, the overall pig supply is still in the stage of surplus. It is expected that there will still be downward pressure on pig prices in the future, and the second wave of de capacity has been gradually opened. The national development and Reform Commission announced that it would start the collection and storage of pork according to the situation, and it is expected that the pig price may stabilize at the bottom. At the level of listed companies, the worst performance of Chinese listed companies has passed, and breeding stocks are facing emotional and performance repair. It is recommended to continue to pay attention to the pig breeding sector.
