The price change of pork is directly related to people's quality of life, so the fluctuation of pork price affects the food problem of more than one billion people. Food is the most important thing for the people, and the quality of life and consumption level are always concerned by the party and the state. According to the statistics of relevant departments: possible. The national consumer index rose by 2. 1%. But the price of pork rose by 5.2%. According to the survey of the Ministry of Agriculture, the average price of live pigs in June was 16.65 yuan/kg, and the wholesale price of agricultural products increased by 5 percentage points in the same period. The relevant departments of the state organized a meeting to understand the reasons for the recent high price of live pigs in China: deliberate hoarding and reluctance to sell in the market.
The change of pork price has obvious periodicity. In order to prevent the low price of pork from affecting the enthusiasm of pork farmers, governments at all levels have taken active measures. Since 20021,the state has listed and stored 480,000 tons of frozen pork. Macro-control to start the central frozen pork reserve in time is conducive to guiding the production and sales of live pigs, avoiding the price of pork being too high or too low and making its price fluctuate within a reasonable range.
Recently, the relevant state departments held a forum with Dalian Commodity Exchange, demanding to strengthen the joint supervision of commodity futures market, crack down on illegal acts such as spreading price increase information, driving up prices and malicious speculation according to law, and ensure the normal and stable operation of the live pig market. Those who do not listen to advice and hoard will be severely punished. And will deal with it resolutely and quickly to ensure the normal operation of the domestic pig market. Many professionals said: there is no shortage of pigs in the market, and pig stock enterprises are stable. Therefore, it is the problem that the price of pork is too high because of human interference. The timely action of the state eliminated speculation in the market, brought pork back to the normal level, kept the consumption level of the broad masses within a suitable range, and improved the people's happiness index.
