2、 Investment advice

According to official data, the speed of capacity removal in the industry has slowed down recently due to the rebound of pig prices, but the trend of capacity removal is still continuing. In 2022, with the deregulation of production capacity, the pig industry is expected to usher in a new round of cycle reversal. We are optimistic about the investment opportunities of breeding industry and seed industry in the medium and long term, and focus on recommending high-quality industry leaders with safe valuation.

1. Seed industry: Recently, favorable policies have been intensively released, focusing on the recommendation of high-quality seed industry leaders. Recently, the seed industry has ushered in the intensive release of a series of favorable policies. Following the implementation of the new seed law, the national standard for the approval of genetically modified soybean and corn varieties and other relevant industrial policies to promote the commercialization of genetically modified staple grains are also expected to be implemented soon. We believe that the mass production and listing of genetically modified corn and soybean seed products will be approaching. With the mass production and listing of genetically modified staple grain seed products, the seed industry will usher in a new period of rapid growth. Leading enterprises have first mover advantages in transgenic technology R & D and product layout, and are expected to gain more market share in the future. We maintain the positive rating of the seed industry, especially the investment opportunities of the high boom corn seed industry. In terms of individual stocks, focus on Shandong Denghai Seeds Co.Ltd(002041) with excellent variety combination and continuous growth, as well as Yuan Longping High-Tech Agriculture Co.Ltd(000998) , Beijing Dabeinong Technology Group Co.Ltd(002385) with leading advantages in transgenic R & D and variety layout, and pay attention to Winall Hi-Tech Seed Co.Ltd(300087) .

2. Breeding industry chain: 1) pig breeding: pay attention to the cost leading enterprises with reasonable valuation in the process of continuous capacity removal. Pig prices began to stabilize and rebound after the recent continuous correction. According to statistics, as of last weekend (December 31), the average price of pigs in 22 provinces and cities in China was 16.3 yuan / kg, up 1.9% on a weekly basis. On the supply side, from the situation of newborn piglets in the early stage, it is expected that the slaughter volume of newborn pigs before the festival will maintain growth month on month. On the demand side, the peak period of bacon production is basically over, but the peak season of family and catering consumption is approaching, and the power of consumption growth is not reduced. With both supply and demand rising, we expect that the pig price will fluctuate and operate stably before the festival or on the basis of the current price, and it is less likely to continue the in-depth adjustment. Official data show that at the end of November, the number of fertile sows in China was 42.96 million, down 1.2% month on month, 4.8% higher than the normal number. According to official data, the speed of capacity removal in the industry has slowed down recently due to the rebound of pig prices, but the trend of capacity removal is still continuing. It is expected that after the double festival, with the adjustment of pig price, the pace of capacity removal will be accelerated again. We believe that in 2022, with the deregulation of production capacity, the pig industry is expected to usher in a new round of cycle reversal. In terms of valuation, at present, the market value of most pig enterprises is below the historical average and has a certain margin of safety. Therefore, the sector is optimistic about the rating. Individual stocks mainly recommend Muyuan Foods Co.Ltd(002714) with leading cost and Wens Foodstuff Group Co.Ltd(300498) and Tecon Biology Co.Ltd(002100) with obvious improvement in production indicators. 2) Dynamic insurance: on the eve of the new cycle, the prosperity of pig vaccine was under short-term pressure, but the static PE was at the bottom of history, the safety margin of valuation was high, and the optimistic rating was maintained. Individual stocks mainly recommend Wuhan Keqian Biology Co.Ltd(688526) with reasonable valuation and significant growth.
