Average culled sow prices fell to 6.44 yuan/kg on October 30, down more than 4% in a week, while commercial hog prices dropped to 9.02 yuan/kg with market-weight rising to 124.71 kg. Piglet prices fell to 82.3 yuan per head as restocking interest remained weak.
Falling culled sow prices signal active herd reduction that will eventually cut supply, but heavy market-weight animals still pressure prices near term, keeping feed demand from hog farms soft.
