The National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs held a forum with hog producers after prices entered the first-level warning zone. Producers were told to strictly enforce capacity controls, reduce breeding sows in an orderly way, and moderate hog slaughter.
Authorities also said central frozen pork reserve purchases will be stepped up, with local governments expanding their purchases.
Official pressure to cut sows and slaughter volumes, together with state pork purchases, points to tighter hog supply and firmer prices ahead. Lower hog output would reduce demand for feed grains and meal.
