猪价跌跌不休 “保险+期货”为养殖户捂紧钱袋子

Group 1 - After the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival holiday, the price of live pigs has accelerated its decline, with recent futures contracts falling below 12,000 yuan/ton. Despite multiple state interventions in frozen pork reserves, the market's recovery effect has been limited [1] - On October 10, the state stored 15,000 tons of frozen pork, marking the latest action in a series of state interventions. Even with five previous storage actions in August and September, and the traditional consumption peak during the holidays, pig prices have not improved, leading to further price drops post-holiday [1] - On October 9, the first trading day after the holiday, the main futures contract for live pigs closed at 11,595 yuan/ton, with a single-day decline of 6.15%. On October 17, the contract price dropped to as low as 11,020 yuan/ton, although there was a slight rebound on October 20, remaining below 11,500 yuan/ton [1] Group 2 - In the context of a "cold winter" for the domestic pig market, the "insurance + futures" project, driven by futures, insurance, and local governments, has played a crucial role in supporting small and medium-sized farmers. The "Luohe sample" is a benchmark project for the Dalian Commodity Exchange's "Farmer Income Protection Plan" [2] - Luohe, an important pig-producing city in Henan Province, has an annual output of over 3 million pigs, with the pig industry accounting for nearly 70% of the livestock industry's output value. The project was initiated in 2021, allowing farmers to manage price risks effectively [2] - The first domestic pig revenue index "insurance + futures" project was implemented in Luohe, with a payout of over 180,000 yuan, achieving a compensation rate of nearly 364%, which helped farmers mitigate losses from falling prices and stabilize operations [2] Group 3 - Facing continuous price declines, listed pig companies have shown increasing enthusiasm for engaging in commodity futures hedging. Since 2021, companies such as Haida Group, Tiankang Biological, and Muyuan Foods have announced their involvement in commodity futures hedging activities [3]
