China News Service, Beijing, September 30 (Reporter Wang Enbo) China's National Development and Reform Commission reported on September 30 that according to preliminary statistics, the country and localities put a total of about 200,000 tons of government pork reserves in September. The price is lower than the market price, which effectively guarantees the smooth operation of the market supply and price of live pigs and pork.
Since September, the National Development and Reform Commission and relevant departments have continued to release pork reserves. At present, 3 batches of nearly 70,000 tons of central pork reserves have been released, and the fourth batch of reserves will be released on September 30.
At the same time, guide all localities to increase the release of local pork reserves and make every effort to increase market supply. At present, most provinces have started the release of pork reserves.
While increasing government pork reserves, local governments have also adopted a series of policy measures to improve the effect of ensuring supply and stabilizing prices.
For example, in Pingxiang, Jiangxi, Huangshan, Anhui and other places, the price is lower than 10 yuan (RMB, the same below) per catty (1 catty is 500 grams), and the price in Guangxi, Heilongjiang, Shandong, Liaoning, Jiangsu, Yunnan and other places is 12 yuan per catty. The price of pork sold in other places is also lower than the market price, ensuring that people can "afford" pork.
Fujian, Shaanxi, Guangdong and other places strengthened the early warning on the supply of live pigs, timely coordinated the dispatch and transportation of live pigs, and ensured stable supply in the market; Shanghai, Guizhou, Qinghai, Hubei, Gansu and other places strengthened the inspection of market prices, and strengthened the supervision of live pig breeding, transportation and slaughtering.
In addition, some localities have also introduced long-term support policies to support the development of the pig industry. For example, Guangzhou gives pig farms (households) a subsidy of 200 yuan per pig to encourage the increase in pig production capacity and market supply; Jiangxi Nanchang and other places coordinate and arrange financial funds , to support the development of the pig industry.
The National Development and Reform Commission said that in the next step, it will continue to release the central pork reserves with relevant departments according to the market situation, and continue to guide local governments to jointly release pork reserves, so as to effectively ensure the stable operation of the live pig pork market and price.
