It has just been reported that the price of live pigs in Harbin has dropped again and again, and small farmers will lose about 150 yuan for selling a pig, and large-scale farming can only do so without losing money. The reporter interviewed pork dealers and said that the price of meat has dropped but the sales volume has dropped. "I have been selling pork in this market for nearly 10 years, and this is the first time I have encountered such a situation." ("Heilongjiang Morning News")

First of all, the service of animal husbandry is probably related to the shortening of the breeding cycle. Taking Jianghan Plain as an example, the so-called "full price feed" has entered thousands of households. The operator promises to feed the pigs with "full-price feed" and release them in 90 days (up to about 200 kilograms), with an invalid refund. Under normal circumstances, the breeding cycle should be about 5-6 months. This means that within the coverage of "full-price feed", even if the number of live pigs remains unchanged, the supply of pork has increased by 50-100% due to the shortened breeding cycle, which will inevitably lead to a sharp drop in prices. Another question is: a pig grows to 200 pounds in 90 days, what is the so-called "full-price feed"? Is the meat of this fast-growing pig safe? I once wrote an article on July 26, 2012. "China Youth Daily", the title: "I haven't eaten pork for a long time." At that time, I saw a report in the "Daily Economic News" that mentioned that farmers in Hebei also used "full price feed". It seems that "full-price feed" has really taken over the world. It is a very urgent task for the administrative department to launch an authoritative investigation to identify the composition of "full-price feed" and the safety of fast-growing pork. Regrettably, another year has passed and there is still no news on the above. I once mentioned a detail in that article: locally, if farmers feed "year pigs" at their own homes, they do not need "full-price feed" at all, but slowly feed them with grain. They just feed commercial pigs with "full price feed". What is the reason? One is that fast-cooked pork has a particularly strong smell and is not delicious; the other is that it obviously violates the laws of nature, and is afraid to eat it because it contains various hormones and chemicals that are not conducive to human health. At the beginning, the influence of these two factors is relatively slow, or even not noticed by many people, but when it develops to a certain extent, it will expand at an accelerated rate. Taking the details in the report as an example, in Harbin, the price of pork belly has dropped to 9 yuan (referring to the current price level, it can’t be said to be expensive), and the sales volume is much lower than in previous years. To a considerable extent, some consumers refuse to eat pork. result.

Today, when a serving of fish-flavored shredded pork was placed in front of me, I didn’t feel the fragrant smell and the appetite increased, but I actually got goosebumps all over my body, as if I was facing a plate of arsenic, and I was being used as a test guinea pig. of terror struck. I haven't eaten pork for a long time. If an authoritative organization conducts a survey: how many people have reduced their consumption of pork, or even stopped eating pork at all, once the results come out, I don’t know if it will be particularly surprising. In this atmosphere, in fact, consumers are suffering. Neither out of faith nor because I don’t want to eat it, but just because I dare not eat it in the midst of all the grass and trees and try my best to restrain myself, there is no such thing as a pleasant life. At the same time, no matter a single farm household or a large-scale enterprise, even if they are obsessed with business ethics, they can restrain themselves, do not blindly feed "full-price feed", and do not simply pursue shortening the breeding cycle. The material and spirit are huge but the harvest is small. This is a lose-lose situation. Therefore, the importance and necessity of facing reality, concentrating on establishing a sound food safety system and rebuilding consumer confidence are even more evident.
