He Jiade, vice president of the American Meat Export Association, told the National Business Daily reporter, "After being slaughtered and divided, pork entering China will have different prices according to different parts. At present, every time American pig farmers sell a pig, they will lose about 140 yuan. "

Extended data:

The price difference of live pigs between China and America is 6 yuan/kg. "A pig can slaughter more than 70% of its weight. Based on the current price of pigs per kilogram of 8.5 yuan, it can be concluded that the cost of pork is about 12 yuan, which will be added to the profits of slaughtering enterprises after entering the wholesale link. "

Feng Yonghui, chief analyst of China Pig Warning Network, told the National Business Daily reporter, "This also means that the cost of pork after pig slaughter in the United States is roughly about 3.6 yuan per catty. Even if calculated according to different parts, most imported pork will be cheaper than China. "
