A Changjiang Securities research call on China's hog market says piglet prices nationally have fallen below 100 yuan per head, down from 250-260 yuan after July. Listed producers reported a further quarter-on-quarter drop in productive biological assets and record debt-to-asset ratios, with heavy hog weights and frozen pork inventories keeping prices near the bottom.
The analysts expect capacity cuts of over 15% and a price turn in Q2 next year.
Sharp piglet price declines and forced capacity reduction point to lower future hog supply, which typically supports feed demand later but weighs on near-term feed purchasing from producers in distress.
