Wens Foodstuffs, China's largest pig producer, says it will follow the new lower-protein feed standards with minimal operational impact, since its formulas are already close to the rules. Restrictions tied to African swine fever are limiting herd rebuilding.
Lower protein adoption cuts soymeal demand gradually, though the limited impact at a major producer suggests the effect may be modest.
After 223 past bearish policy events, Soybean Meal moved a median -0.3% over 5 sessions (45% higher; middle half -2.2% to +1.2%), and -0.6% over 20.
After 26 past neutral policy events, Lean Hogs moved a median -0.9% over 5 sessions (38% higher; middle half -2.6% to +1.7%), and +0.2% over 20.
