In the third week of September, the national pig feed price was 5.12, a decrease of 1.54% from the previous month.

According to the Price Monitoring Center of the National Development and Reform Commission, in the third week of September, the national pig-to-feed ratio was 5.12, a decrease of 1.54% compared to the previous week. Based on current prices and costs, the average profit per head of pig farming in the future piglet fattening mode is -106.13 yuan. The average price of pigs declined on a week-on-week basis. During the week, individual farmers actively slaughtered pigs, and there was a high willingness to slaughter pigs in breeding farms, resulting in a concentrated increase in supply. However, downstream demand has limited growth, and oversupply has dragged down the average weekly price of pigs. In the coming week, as the sentiment of low-price selling by breeding farms gradually emerges, the speed of decline in pig prices may slow down. However, the lack of boost in terminal consumption limits the rebound in pig prices, and it is expected that the average weekly price of pigs will continue to fall on a week-on-week basis, and the expected losses in pig farming will continue to increase.
