Supply and Demand Dynamics - As of October 13, the spot price of pork has dropped to 10.92 yuan/kg, down 1.26 yuan/kg from before the National Day holiday, reflecting a year-on-year decline of 39.43% [3][4]. - The number of breeding sows remains high, with a total of 40.62 million as of the end of September, which is 104.2% of the normal holding capacity, contributing to the oversupply of pigs [3][4]. - The industry is in a phase of "capacity reduction," but the progress is slower than expected, leading to continued price declines [4][5].

Future Outlook - The outlook for pork prices remains pessimistic, with expectations of continued downward pressure due to persistent supply and weak demand [7][8]. - The industry is closely monitoring the effectiveness of capacity reduction policies, which aim to lower the number of breeding sows to around 39.5 million to potentially stabilize prices [5][6].
