CCTV.com quoted industry insiders’ analysis as saying that pork prices stopped falling and rebounded due to the continuous low prices of pigs in the early stage, and the early release of live pigs led to tight pork supply in the market at this stage and the pig market’s counterattack. However, it is expected that the retail price of pork will not be sharp at the end of the year. Rebound. The sharp increase in egg prices is mainly due to the continuous increase in feed prices and the gradual cold weather affecting the egg production rate.
The price increase of vegetables is mainly affected by the weather, and the supply of goods is relatively reduced. In addition, the cooling weather directly affects the transportation. These reasons cause the cost increase and push up the price of vegetables.
Industry insiders predict that as New Year’s Day approaches, egg consumption demand will further increase, and egg prices are expected to remain high in the short term.
