Jiangsu Sue pork price rises before the holiday

There are still 10 days to come to the Spring Festival. In previous years, when the river had risen by three points, the price of pork in Sioux City this year has not only not risen, but has also dropped a lot and fell back to the lowest level in the past six months. Among them, the wholesale price of white meat in the field fell by nearly 20% in a week. The retail price of pork in the farm market dropped by about 5 hair per catty.

The old staff of the Friendship Market, Ge Jianqing’s meat stand, had recently sold a pound of 12.5 yuan per gallon, compared with 13 yuan per pound a week ago. The price of small ribs and pure meat was also 5 pounds less than a week ago. Become 13 yuan per catty. Asked why the price fell down, Ge Jianqing took out the goods purchase order and said: Look, my wholesale price of “Dr. Dr. Sanyuan No. 2 Pork” is RMB 8.55 per month on January 27th. Now it costs RMB 7.65 per kg. The wholesale price fell, and my retail price naturally followed. Of course, the original profit was too thin, so the retail price reduction was only marginally smaller.

Like Ge Jianqing, the retail price of pork in many meat stalls in Sioux City is quietly downgraded these days, and the reason for the downward adjustment is the same as the wholesale price.

How did the wholesale price change? The Nanhuan Bridge Market, which provides 70% of fresh meat products in Sioux City, provided such a set of data: The local white mutton meat was 6.9 yuan per catty yesterday, a 5% drop from January 25th a week ago and a 14% drop from 8 yuan New Year's Day. Compared with 8.5 yuan on January 13 last year (which is the same as yesterday for the lunar calendar, they were all twelfth lunar month eighteen), it was down by 19%; the white meat in the field was 5.9 yuan per catty yesterday, compared to January 25th. 7.3 yuan fell by 19%, compared with 7.7 yuan on January 13 last year fell by 23% ... ... the current price, has been the lowest since last summer.

According to reason, summer is the off-season pork consumption, the price will generally be cheaper; and near the Spring Festival pork demand increased substantially, the price should rise. How did pork prices fall before the Spring Festival this year? Department of Marketing, Business Department 2 of the Nanhuan Bridge Market, Tan Xin, who is responsible for the wholesale and retail of fresh meat, explained that according to what they knew, the main part of the country was the large amount of live pigs in the country. It was close to the Spring Festival and was oversupply. The price of meat fell. "You see, we have about 2,600 pork on the market every day. There were only 2200 pork around last year."

Tan Xin admitted frankly, regarding his many years of experience in pork wholesale and retail work, the price of pork before the Spring Festival was not the same as the first time, but it was unexpected. He believes that as long as there is no bad weather affecting transport, the wholesale price of pork in Sioux City will remain stable in the next few days, and may rebound slightly after one week, but it will increase by up to one or two cents per catty and the retail price will not change.

Some industry insiders believe that in the current circumstances, relevant departments and operators in Suzhou City may consider storing some pork to prepare for adjustment when the market is in short supply, and at the same time prevent the further decline in the price of meat to dampen the enthusiasm of farmers and stabilize the pig breeding industry. The ups and downs of meat prices.
