Pork prices have risen for the eleventh consecutive time—could this be the moment to step into the 'pig cycle'? Analysts are sharply divided.
Pork prices have risen for eleven consecutive weeks, surging over 20%, thrusting the hog farming sector back into the spotlight. However, institutions are divided on whether this marks a rebound or a genuine reversal. Optimists point to deep industry losses, sustained declines in the breeding sow herd, and government-driven production cuts, arguing that a cyclical inflection point is approaching. Cautious analysts warn that secondary fattening merely 'defers supply,' and with weak seasonal demand coinciding with increased output from large-scale producers, pork prices still face downside risks. Entering the 'hog complex' may still represent a left-tail trade.
The greater the current challenges, the higher the future profits? Goldman Sachs is eyeing China's pork sector.
Pig prices have fallen to RMB 9 per kilogram, pushing the industry to the brink of its cash flow limits due to mounting losses. However, with the downward revision of the target for breeding sows, deepening losses, and accelerated capacity exits, Goldman Sachs forecasts that the supply-demand balance for hogs will shift from surplus to shortage in the second half of 2026, driving pig prices back up to RMB 15 per kilogram. The real winners won’t be those offering the lowest prices today, but those who can survive until prices rebound.
Express News | Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and National Development and Reform Commission Hold a Symposium on Strengthening Comprehensive Regulation of Hog Production Capacity
Recently, relevant departments of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs and the National Development and Reform Commission convened a symposium with representatives from major hog-producing provinces and large-scale hog farming enterprises to analyze and assess the current state of hog production, guide local authorities and enterprises in implementing routine, targeted regulatory measures, and facilitate a prompt return of hog prices to a reasonable level. The meeting noted that hog prices have bottomed out and stabilized, and emphasized the need to consistently and effectively implement comprehensive capacity regulation measures to genuinely improve market supply-demand dynamics and solidify the foundation for price recovery. The meeting called on large-scale hog producers to actively respond to this initiative by improving the quality of data submissions for production statistics and monitoring, taking the lead in reducing hog production capacity and output, strictly controlling secondary fattening, culling weak piglets, and lowering slaughter weights. Relevant major producing provinces were urged to strengthen oversight across all stages, enhance information sharing on monitoring data, and implement thorough, end-to-end management; they should also promptly revise and enforce provincial capacity regulation plans to better align policy efforts and continue achieving substantive reductions in production capacity.
