pig price is expected to stabilize gradually
Driven by peak season consumption, pork prices rebounded in the fourth quarter. However, due to the continuous high pig supply, pork prices fluctuated again near the end of the year.
The peak consumption season of the Spring Festival is coming. According to the practice of previous years, pork supply and demand are relatively strong at the end of the year and the beginning of the year. Many institutions expect that pork prices will rise or fall sharply at the end of the year.
It is worth noting that recently, the Tariff Commission of the State Council announced that the import tax rate of pork will be restored from 8% to 12% from January 1, 2022. With the increase of China’s pig supply, the import demand and actual import will continue to decrease, which is conducive to the rebound of pork prices.
China International Capital Corporation Limited(601995) the research report points out that from the perspective of cycle, the current fertile sows have peaked and depopulated, and the pig price is on the left side of the bottom inflection point. Farmers’ cash flow tightened and continued to promote the de production capacity. Pig prices are expected to bottom out and reverse as early as the second quarter of 2022. From the perspective of growth, after entering the upward stage of the cycle, the improvement of enterprise cash flow will promote the rapid growth of sales. At the same time, the current large-scale breeding enterprises have both expansion capacity and space, and have good medium and long-term growth. On the whole, the opportunities of pig breeding industry in terms of cycle and growth will be significantly improved in 2022. It is suggested to focus on this layout.
Dongxing Securities Corporation Limited(601198) the research report believes that in the downward stage of the current cycle, cash advantage and cost advantage are the most core elements to ensure the stable operation and safe passage of the current cycle. Enterprises have stopped outsourcing piglet fattening to reduce cash flow loss, gradually improve their production performance and reduce breeding costs to reduce losses. The rebound of pig price may affect the speed of capacity removal at this stage.
Dongxing Securities Corporation Limited(601198) believes that this round of pig price rebound may cause the month on month decline of fertile sows in November. However, at present, the pig price of 16 + yuan / kg has not reached above the cost line of many breeding enterprises, and the pig price may reach the bottom again after the peak demand season. The pressure of breeding enterprises to eliminate inefficient sow production capacity, increase efficiency and reduce cost is still urgent.
