Industry: the contradiction of oversupply is prominent, and the rise of feed cost intensifies the loss of single head
According to the data of the National Bureau of statistics, the average selling price of pigs at the end of February was 12.45 yuan / kg, down 1.52 yuan / kg month on month; The average sales price of compound feed for fattening pigs was 3.68 yuan / kg, up 0.05 yuan / kg month on month. The profit and loss of self breeding and self feeding and outsourcing fattening heads were -481.90 yuan / head and -485.85 yuan / head respectively, and the loss range was enlarged by 170.35 yuan / head and 153.62 yuan / head respectively. The national development and Reform Commission’s pig grain price ratio is 4.89. Since mid February, the official pig grain price ratio has triggered a national level early warning. In early March, the central government has successively started the collection and storage of two batches of central reserve frozen pork, with a cumulative collection and storage volume of 78000 tons.
In terms of changes in supply and demand, according to the monitoring slaughtering data of Yongyi consulting, the slaughtering volume of monitoring samples in February also remained relatively high year-on-year. From March to may, 2021, the number of fertile sows increased month on month and was at a cyclical high. It is expected that a higher number of pigs will be sold from March to June, 2022. On the consumer side, affected by the recent rise of covid-19 epidemic in China, the short-term consumption pressure increases, and the contradiction of excess supply in the industry will become more significant, which is expected to further suppress the downward price.
From the perspective of industrial production capacity, it is expected that the number of samples monitored by the Ministry of agriculture of the industry will continue to decline in February. It is expected that in February, the industrial capacity will be reduced by 0.0% – 1.0%. Since the beginning of the year, some farmers have gradually formed rebound expectations for pig prices in the second half of the year, limiting the de conversion range of short-term single month production capacity to a certain extent. However, considering the downward trend of pig prices and the amplification of single breeding loss, we maintain optimistic expectations for the extent of capacity removal from March to may 2022. The loss of single breeding head will also show an amplification trend, and the continuous loss will drive the clearing of inferior production capacity.
