On July 29, Tang Renjian, director of the Central Agricultural Office and Minister of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, presided over an executive meeting of the Ministry to study and deploy work such as stabilizing pig production capacity. The meeting emphasized that it is necessary to thoroughly study and implement the spirit of General Secretary Xi Jinping’s important instructions, implement the deployment requirements of the executive meeting of the State Council, take multiple measures to consolidate the results of the recovery of live pig production, promote the sustainable and healthy development of the live pig industry, and enhance the ability to guarantee safe pork supply.
The meeting pointed out that this round of “pig cycle” production capacity has dropped significantly, and the impact of the African swine fever epidemic and the new crown pneumonia epidemic is superimposed, and the task of recovery is heavy. Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, various regions and departments have made concerted efforts, and the production capacity of live pigs has returned to the level of normal years, the proportion of large-scale breeding has increased, and the industrial structure has been continuously optimized. With the recovery of live pig production capacity and the fall in pig prices, it is necessary to promptly shift the focus of work to consolidate results and ease fluctuations in the “pig cycle”, and explore the establishment of a long-term mechanism for stable production and development. Efforts should be made to stabilize the pig production capacity of major pig breeding provinces, counties, and large farms, further consolidate local responsibilities, supervise and implement long-term support policies such as finance, finance, and land use, and maintain policy continuity and stability. Accelerate the establishment of a counter-cyclical control mechanism for pig production, accurately monitor the monthly changes in pig production indicators, issue an early warning when the number of breeding sows monthly changes by plus or minus 5% year-on-year, and the number of breeding sows will decrease by more than 10% or live pigs. When aquaculture suffers a serious loss for more than 3 months, the local government shall be urged to initiate rescue measures in a timely manner. Continue to do a good job in the prevention and control of major diseases such as African swine fever, promote standardized large-scale pig breeding, and improve the modernization level of the pig industry.
The meeting emphasized that it is necessary to conscientiously implement the instructions of the central leaders on flood prevention and relief, attach great importance to the current disaster prevention and relief work, timely dispatch the disaster situation, and take targeted measures to guide and support local governments to do a solid job of disaster prevention and mitigation. , To do a good job in restoring production and grain loss after the disaster, stepping up efforts to replant and replant the land without harvest, and go all out to ensure a bumper harvest and food security in autumn. At the same time, it is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of animal diseases, and promptly dispose of sick and dead livestock and poultry to ensure that there is no major epidemic after a major disaster.
The meeting also studied other matters.
