China News Service, July 8th. At a regular press conference held by the Ministry of Commerce on the 8th, Gao Feng, the spokesperson of the Ministry of Commerce, said that stable pork prices are not only related to pig production, but also related to people's lives.
The main goal of macro-control is to prevent big ups and downs and avoid "high prices hurting the people" and "low prices hurting farmers."
Judging from the current situation, with the gradual digestion of large pigs for slaughter in the early stage and the support of national purchasing and storage policies, it is expected that the prices of live pigs and pork in the second half of the year will be stable and consolidate.
