Express News | Fangzheng Securities: Pig prices have entered a slow upward trend
Nurturing a new cycle: “Earning money” in the second half of the year was a consistent expectation. Was it a small fluctuation or a big market?

Pig cycle “failure”: the worst loss in history, farmers bluntly called it “too difficult!”

The upward time in this round of the pig cycle was short, and losses on the breeding side were serious, and the industry lamented “it's hard to make money!” ② The formation cycle of the pig industry is a mismatch between changes in supply and demand and the pig growth cycle.
