After the Spring Festival, pork prices continued to decline gradually. From the cost and raw material perspective, the supply pressure accumulated before the festival needs to be released urgently, with market pig sources being abundant and slaughterhouses lowering prices to buy pigs; from the demand side, after the festival, terminal consumption is in the off-season, with poor sales at agricultural markets and stores, limiting pork digestion capacity. Overall, supply is strong while demand is weak, and pork prices are expected to continue to decline under pressure. As Qingming approaches, combined with the end and beginning of the month, some breeding enterprises are reducing their output, and there is some support for stockpiling for Qingming. Slaughterhouse orders have increased by about 3%, with supply decreasing and demand increasing, so pork prices are expected to stabilize briefly after a temporary decline. (Zhuochuang Information)

After the Spring Festival, pork prices have maintained a downward slide. From the cost-and-input side, the supply pressure that was accumulated before the Spring Festival and needs to be released urgently. On the supply side, pork sources are abundant; slaughtering enterprises push down prices to buy pigs. From the demand side, after the Spring Festival, terminal consumption remains in a normal off-season; traffic at farmers’ markets and storefronts is weak, and the ability to absorb pork is limited. Taken together, supply is strong and demand is weak, and pork prices continue to face downward pressure.

As Qingming Day approaches—along with the end of the month and the beginning of the next—some breeding enterprises reduce the volume of their outbound sales. At the same time, preparations for Qingming provide some support. Slaughtering enterprises’ orders are expected to increase by about 3% in incremental terms. With supply decreasing and demand increasing, pork prices may be able to stop the decline and temporarily stabilize. (Zhuochuang Information)
