China News Service, September 19. Meng Wei, a spokesperson for the National Development and Reform Commission, said at a press conference on the 19th that recently, in order to increase the market supply for Mid-Autumn Festival, National Day and other festivals, the National Development and Reform Commission and relevant departments have released two batches of central pork reserves. The third batch of reserves will also be released, and all localities will be instructed to increase their efforts to release local pork reserves at the same time.
According to the quantity already put in and the plan for the later stage, it is estimated
that the country and all regions will put about 200,000 tons of pork reserves in September
.
Meng Wei said that considering that the current price of live pigs is already at a high level, the average profit per head of live pig breeding is also significantly higher than the historical average level. If the price rises further, it may lead to a rapid increase in production capacity and a sharp drop in prices in the later period, which is not conducive to the long-term industry of the industry. Healthy development, therefore, in the next few months, the focus of the national live pig price control work is to prevent the price from rising too fast.
In the next step, the National Development and Reform Commission will continue to keep a close eye on the dynamics of the live pig market with relevant departments, and will continue to release the central pork reserves in batches based on the market supply and demand and price situation, and urge and guide the simultaneous release of pork reserves in all regions, and will further increase if necessary. and strengthen market supervision and guidance to promote the smooth operation of the market and prices.
