Dairy industry: price increase to hedge cost pressure, optimize the competition pattern, and the gross sales difference is expected to continue to improve. After the epidemic, people’s health awareness has improved and the demand for dairy products is strong. The price of raw milk has shown an upward trend since May 2020. At the beginning of March 2022, the price of raw milk has slightly decreased from the high level of 4.38 yuan / kg in 2021 to 4.21 yuan / kg, but it is still high compared with the average price of 3.79 yuan / kg in 2020. We expect that the price of raw milk will not rise sharply again in 2022 and remain at a relatively high price. In order to cope with the rise in the price of raw milk, raising the price and streamlining the investment of expenses and reducing promotion have become the main effective measures for dairy enterprises. Referring to the past, facing the increase in the price of raw milk from 2010 to 2013, Yili has taken price increase and fee control measures. The gross sales difference in 2011 and 2014 has increased by 2.49pct and 3.25pct respectively. We expect that the gross sales difference will also be improved in 2022. If the subsequent cost pressure slows down, the profitability of the leader is expected to be further improved, Recommend Inner Mongolia Yili Industrial Group Co.Ltd(600887) , pay attention to Mengniu.
