Report Industry Investment Rating - Not provided in the report Core Viewpoints - The supply and demand of the domestic pig market are expected to increase this week, and the pig price is expected to bottom out and rebound in the short term, maintaining a volatile pattern. The market should focus on the changes in the slaughter rhythm of group farms at the end of the month and the dynamics of the secondary fattening market. The LH2511 contract of live pigs is expected to fluctuate in the range of 12,400 - 12,800 [10]. Summary by Directory 1. Daily Hints - The fundamentals show that in September, the domestic market is gradually entering the peak season of supply and demand before the Mid - Autumn Festival and National Day. The enthusiasm for domestic slaughter has increased, and the pig price is expected to maintain short - term fluctuations. It is expected that the supply of pigs and meat will increase this week. On the demand side, the domestic macro - environment expectation has improved, and the overall consumption willingness of residents has increased with the approaching of the school season and long holidays, which boosts the short - term fresh pork consumption and market confidence. The base price indicates that the national average spot price is 12,560 yuan/ton, and the basis of the 2511 contract is 105 yuan/ton, with the spot at a discount to the futures. The inventory shows that as of June 30, the live pig inventory was 424.47 million heads, a month - on - month increase of 0.4% and a year - on - year increase of 2.2%; as of the end of June, the breeding sow inventory was 40.42 million heads, a month - on - month increase of 0.02% and a year - on - year increase of 4.2%. The market trend shows that the price is below the 20 - day moving average and moving downward. The main positions are net long, with an increase in long positions. It is expected that the supply and demand of live pigs will pick up recently, and the pig price will maintain a weak and volatile pattern this week, with the LH2511 contract fluctuating in the range of 12,400 - 12,800 [10]. 2. Recent News - China's additional tariffs on pork imports from the United States and Canada have boosted market confidence. Affected by the off - season, with the approaching of the Mid - Autumn Festival and National Day, the slaughter of large pigs has increased, resulting in an increase in both supply and demand of live pigs. The spot price has returned to short - term fluctuations, and the futures price has also shown a range - bound pattern. Recently, the high - temperature weather has led to a short - term decline in pork demand. The spot price of live pigs has fluctuated weakly due to the increase in supply, but the decline may be limited due to the gradual recovery of demand. The domestic pig farming profit has remained at a low level, and the short - term profit has deteriorated. The enthusiasm for slaughtering large pigs is currently good, and the increase in both supply and demand supports the short - term price expectations of live pig futures and spot. The spot price of live pigs may fluctuate strongly before the National Day, and the futures price will return to a range - bound pattern in the short term. Further observation of the growth of supply and demand is needed [12]. 3. Bullish and Bearish Factors - Bullish factors include that the domestic pig consumption has entered the peak season before the long holiday, and the room for further decline in the domestic live pig spot price may be limited. Bearish factors include the pessimistic expectation of the domestic macro - environment affected by the Sino - US tariff war and the year - on - year increase in domestic live pig inventory. The current main logic is that the market focuses on the slaughter situation of live pigs and the demand for fresh meat [13]. 4. Fundamental Data - The report provides data on live pig futures, warehouse receipts, and spot prices from September 15 to September 23, including prices of the main 2511 contract, far - month 2601 contract, 2411 contract, and spot prices in different regions such as Shandong, Jiangsu, Hunan, and Guangdong. It also shows various charts related to the fundamentals of live pigs, including the basis and spread trends of live pig futures, the average prices of different specifications of live pigs in the spot market, and the supply - side indicators such as pig prices, piglet indicators, inventory, pork imports, fattening costs, feed profit expectations, slaughter, profit, and substitution. On the demand side, it includes consumption trends, pig - grain ratio, and the situation of purchase and release of reserves [14]. 5. Position Data - Not explicitly summarized in the given content.

Report Summary 1. Report Industry Investment Rating No information provided. 2. Core Viewpoint - The report suggests that the pig price will experience a period of volatile adjustment. The supply of pigs is expected to increase gradually until December, which will limit significant price increases. However, the price difference between 150Kg pigs and standard pigs is expected to strengthen seasonally, providing some support to the pig price. If the price remains weak, a negative cycle may form, but the pig price may rebound at the end of the year. In this case, an inverse spread strategy between the 11 - 01 contracts can be considered [4]. 3. Summary by Relevant Catalogs 3.1 Market Dynamics - On September 17, the registered warehouse receipts of live pigs were 428 lots. The short - term spot price has limited room for further decline, and attention should be paid to the change in the slaughter weight of live pigs. The main contract of live pigs (LH2511) added 9,219 lots in positions today, with a total position of about 94,100 lots. The highest price was 13,160 yuan/ton, the lowest was 12,995 yuan/ton, and it closed at 13,000 yuan/ton [2]. 3.2 Fundamental Analysis - From the perspective of the inventory of breeding sows, the supply of live pigs is expected to increase monthly from March to December, but the increase is limited. Based on the piglet data, the slaughter volume of live pigs will generally increase in the third and fourth quarters of 2025. The consumption in the second half of the year is better than that in the first half. Historically, the price difference between fat pigs and standard pigs may strengthen. The market has both bearish and bullish logics. The bearish factors include slow and difficult weight reduction by farmers, continuous increase in subsequent slaughter volume, and limited demand support for pig prices in September and October. The bullish factors include weight reduction by farmers benefiting the future market, improved consumption after the weather turns cool, and limited increase in subsequent slaughter volume [3]. 3.3 Strategy Suggestion - The view is that the market will be in a volatile adjustment phase. The core logic is that, based on sow and piglet data, the slaughter volume of live pigs may increase monthly until December, making it difficult for pig prices to rise significantly under sufficient supply. The price difference between 150Kg pigs and standard pigs has stabilized and rebounded, and it is expected to continue to strengthen seasonally, which will weaken farmers' willingness to reduce weight and support pig prices. If the weak price continues, a negative cycle may form. If this cycle occurs, the pig price is expected to rebound at the end of the year, and an inverse spread strategy between the 11 - 01 contracts can be considered (for reference only, not an investment recommendation) [4]. 3.4 Market Overview - On September 17, the national average live pig slaughter price was 12.95 yuan/kg, a decrease of 0.13 yuan/kg or 0.99% from the previous day. The slaughter price in Henan was 13.04 yuan/kg, a decrease of 0.15 yuan/kg or 1.14%. In Sichuan, it was 12.64 yuan/kg, a decrease of 0.1 yuan/kg or 0.78%. Among the futures prices, the 01 contract was 13,510 yuan/ton, a decrease of 170 yuan/ton or 1.24%; the 03 contract remained unchanged at 13,005 yuan/ton; the 05 contract was 13,550 yuan/ton, an increase of 20 yuan/ton or 0.15%; the 07 contract was 14,300 yuan/ton, an increase of 60 yuan/ton or 0.42%; the 09 contract was 12,985 yuan/ton, a decrease of 115 yuan/ton or 0.88%; the 11 contract was 13,000 yuan/ton, a decrease of 160 yuan/ton or 1.22%. The main basis in Henan was 40 yuan/ton, an increase of 10 yuan/ton or 33.33% [6]. 3.5 Key Data Tracking No detailed summary information provided other than the display of data charts, including the closing prices of futures contracts in the past 180 days, the basis of the main live pig contract in Henan, the price difference between 11 - 01 contracts, and the price difference between 01 - 03 contracts [14].

Industry - In August, the outflow of large pigs continued, leading to a pessimistic outlook for pig prices. The average selling price of live pigs in August 2025 was 13.77 yuan/kg, down 5.35% month-on-month and 32.35% year-on-year [2][3] - The slaughter volume in August 2025 was 4.3388 million heads, an increase of 4.34% month-on-month and 5.66% year-on-year [2][3] - The completion rate of pig outflow in August was 100.04%, with a planned outflow for September increasing by 3.92% compared to August's actual outflow [2][3] - The pig price in August experienced a decline due to factors such as group weight reduction, large pig sales by individual farmers, and the spread of African swine fever from south to north [2][3] - Despite short-term pressure from the spread of the epidemic, the demand is expected to improve as temperatures drop, providing support for pig prices [2][3] Company - In August, 12 listed pig farming companies reported a total outflow of 15.116 million heads, an increase of 29.79% year-on-year [4] - Major listed companies such as Muyuan Foods, Wens Foodstuff Group, and New Hope reported respective outflows of 700.10, 324.57, and 133.78 thousand heads, with year-on-year changes of +27.11%, +37.88%, and +4.72% [4] - The average selling price of pigs for major listed companies decreased in August, with prices for companies like Muyuan Foods and Wens Foodstuff Group dropping by 5.5% and 6.5% respectively [5]

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant information provided. Core View of the Report The report analyzes the market conditions of various agricultural products including protein meal, oils and fats, sugar, cotton, eggs, and pigs, and provides corresponding trading strategies based on the current supply - demand situation, cost factors, and future expectations of each product [3][5][8][11][14][17][20]. Summary by Related Catalogs Protein Meal - **Market Condition**: On Tuesday, US soybeans rose slightly due to trade optimism and recent drought. Domestic soybean meal spot prices increased by 20 yuan/ton, with the East China basis at 01 - 110 remaining unchanged. The downstream inventory days increased by 0.42 days to 9.22 days last week. The domestic soybean and soybean meal inventories were almost unchanged week - on - week and at a high level in recent years year - on - year [3]. - **Cost Analysis**: The cost of imported soybeans is supported by the undervaluation of US soybeans, Sino - US trade relations, and Brazilian planting season trading, but it also faces pressure from the global protein raw material supply surplus, potential expansion of Brazilian planting area, and possible short - term supply surplus if Sino - US relations ease [3]. - **Trading Strategy**: The cost of imported soybeans has maintained a weak and stable trend recently. The domestic soybean meal market has high - level提货. It is expected that the spot side may start to destock in September, supporting the oil mill's crushing profit. The soybean meal should be mainly operated in a range - bound manner, waiting for a driving factor to choose a direction [5]. Oils and Fats - **Important Information**: From September 1 - 10, 2025, Malaysia's palm oil exports decreased by 1.2% - 8.43%, and the output decreased by 3.17% month - on - month. Brazil's soybean exports in September are expected to reach 753 million tons. The price of edible oils including palm oil is expected to be firm in 2025 and 2026 due to supply lagging behind demand. On Tuesday, the three major domestic oils were strong, with stable demand from importing countries, low inventory in Southeast Asia, and unstable supply in Indonesia providing continuous positive factors [6]. - **Trading Strategy**: Low inventory of vegetable oils in India and Southeast Asian producing areas, the US biodiesel policy draft boosting soybean oil demand, limited production increase potential of Southeast Asian palm oil, and the expected decline in exportable volume due to increasing biodiesel consumption in Indonesia support the price center of oils. Oils are in a state of balanced or slightly loose current supply - demand and tight expected supply. They are expected to be in a medium - term upward trend. With the current high valuation, the strategy is to buy on dips and stabilization [8]. Sugar - **Key Information**: On Tuesday, the Zhengzhou sugar futures price continued to fluctuate. The closing price of the January contract was 5547 yuan/ton, down 2 yuan/ton or 0.04% from the previous trading day. The sugar yield and sugar content in Brazil's central - southern region in August decreased compared to the same period in 2024 [10]. - **Trading Strategy**: Both the domestic and international sugar markets are bearish. The domestic sugar price is expected to continue to decline, and if Brazil's sugar production continues to increase from August to October, the domestic sugar price may reach a new low [11]. Cotton - **Key Information**: On Tuesday, the Zhengzhou cotton futures price continued to fluctuate. The closing price of the January contract was 13895 yuan/ton, up 10 yuan/ton or 0.07% from the previous trading day. The开机率 of the downstream textile industry has increased but is still lower than the same period in previous years. The domestic cotton inventory is at a low level, and the US cotton has a high excellent rate and a normal harvest rate [13]. - **Trading Strategy**: With the consumption peak season approaching, the downstream开机率 is increasing, but the inventory is low and there is an expected increase in production in the long - term. The short - term cotton price is expected to continue to fluctuate [14]. Eggs - **Spot Information**: The national egg price was stable with some increases. The average price in the main producing areas rose 0.07 yuan to 3.74 yuan/jin. The supply is sufficient, and the market demand is stable [16]. - **Trading Strategy**: The supply base is still large, and there is a large amount of cold - stored eggs. After a short - term increase, the spot price may fall back. However, after the large - scale culling of laying hens, the supply pressure decreases. It is recommended to wait and see, and consider short - term long positions in the far - month contracts when there is a large increase in positions after a price decline [17]. Pigs - **Spot Information**: The domestic pig price continued to fall. The average price in Henan decreased by 0.17 yuan to 13.19 yuan/kg, and in Sichuan, it decreased by 0.13 yuan to 12.74 yuan/kg. The demand is average, and the slaughter volume is stable. The pig price is expected to continue to be weak [19]. - **Trading Strategy**: The planned slaughter volume is large in September, but there are potential supporting factors such as consumption, weight gain, and state reserves. The spot price may fluctuate in a narrow range. The futures price has fallen continuously, and it is not cost - effective to short further. Pay attention to the possibility of a rebound due to policies and consumption, and short - sell after the rebound. The far - month reverse spread strategy continues [20].

Investment Rating - The industry investment rating is "Positive" (maintained) [1] Core Viewpoints - The report indicates that the pig price is expected to remain stable in the future despite a decline in August due to factors such as heavy weight slaughtering and the spread of African swine fever [3][13] - The average national pig sales price in August 2025 was 13.77 yuan/kg, down 5.35% month-on-month and down 32.35% year-on-year [3][13] - The report highlights that the supply of pigs may gradually tighten in the future due to a decrease in the proportion of large pigs in stock and an increase in the proportion of large pigs being slaughtered [4][17] Summary by Sections Industry Overview - In August 2025, the national pig slaughter volume was 4.3388 million heads, an increase of 4.34% month-on-month and 5.66% year-on-year [3][13] - The report notes that the completion rate of pig slaughtering plans was 100.04% in August, with a planned increase of 3.92% in September compared to actual slaughter in August [3][13] Market Dynamics - The structure of pig slaughtering shows an increase in the proportion of large pigs (over 150kg) being slaughtered, while the proportion of large pigs in stock has decreased [4][17] - The average profit for self-breeding and self-raising pigs in August was 36.80 yuan/head, a decrease of 63.80% month-on-month [5][20] Company Performance - A total of 12 listed pig farming companies reported a combined slaughter of 15.116 million heads in August, an increase of 29.79% year-on-year [6][23] - The average sales price of pigs for major listed companies decreased month-on-month, with specific companies reporting the following prices: - Muyuan Foods: 13.51 yuan/kg, down 5.5% - Wens Foodstuffs: 13.90 yuan/kg, down 6.5% - New Hope Liuhe: 13.54 yuan/kg, down 6.9% [7][28]

Core Viewpoint - The pork price is experiencing a downward trend, reaching new lows, with concerns about potentially falling below 13 yuan/kg. However, there is a belief that prices may stabilize by the end of September if the market can withstand the mid-month pressures [2]. Group 1: Supply Risks - The official target is to reduce the breeding pig capacity to below 39 million heads by the end of the year, while the breeding sow capacity was still at 40.42 million heads as of the end of July, indicating a tight timeline for adjustments [4]. - The concentration of the pig farming industry has increased significantly after previous capacity reductions, making the actions of leading companies more impactful on the market. Typically, there is a tightening of supply at the beginning and end of the month, with increased supply expected mid-month, leading to potential price declines [5]. - There is a risk of supply pressure due to the ongoing production capacity adjustments and the need to manage the market effectively [2]. Group 2: Demand Dynamics - Although there has been a slight improvement in pork consumption with the cooling weather, it is still far from the expected peak consumption season, indicating that demand has not significantly rebounded [6]. - The increase in supply from large enterprises, coupled with sluggish demand, poses a significant challenge for small and medium-sized farmers, potentially pushing some out of the market [6]. - The upcoming double festival at the end of the month is expected to provide a temporary boost to market consumption, which may influence market sentiment positively [6]. Group 3: Market Adjustments - The pace of reducing the weight of pigs for slaughter is slowing down, which means that the market supply of pork may decrease, alleviating some supply pressure [8]. - There has been a rise in secondary fattening practices, which, despite official controls, are expected to increase as the consumption season approaches, further tightening the supply pressure [9]. - With a reduction in supply and an anticipated increase in demand, there is a possibility for pork prices to stabilize or even see a slight increase, especially as the peak consumption season approaches in October [11].

Group 1 - The core viewpoint is that pig prices experienced an increase in early September due to rising orders from slaughter enterprises driven by the start of the school year, alongside a reduction in pig supply from farms, leading to a supply-demand imbalance [1][3]. - In early September, the average price of lean pigs was 13.98 yuan per kilogram, which is an increase of 0.41 yuan per kilogram compared to August 29 [1]. - The demand side saw a continuous increase in pig consumption due to low pork prices in August, with slaughter enterprises ramping up orders as schools reopened [3]. Group 2 - On the supply side, the reduction in pig outflow in early September contributed to the price increase, with daily outflow recorded at 14.20 million heads, a decrease of 4.58 million heads compared to August 26 [5]. - Despite the short-term price increase, the supply is expected to rise in September, with a planned outflow increase of 4.19% from over 200 surveyed breeding enterprises [5]. - The market is anticipated to see a price decline in mid-September, but there may be potential for price increases towards the end of the month as some farms may choose to increase the weight of pigs being sold [5].

Core Viewpoint - The domestic pig market has experienced fluctuations in prices, with a recent upward trend due to seasonal demand and changes in supply dynamics, although potential pressures on prices remain [1] Price Trends - After hitting a low of 13.91 yuan/kg in June, pig prices rose to 15.4 yuan/kg in early July, but subsequently fell again due to supply pressures and weak demand [1] - By the end of August, pig prices dropped to a new low of 13.71 yuan/kg, but have since shown signs of recovery, with prices returning to the "7 yuan era" [1] Supply and Demand Dynamics - The increase in pig prices is supported by seasonal demand as schools reopen and restaurant purchases rise, leading to improved consumer demand for pork [1] - The slaughtering rate of sample enterprises reached approximately 31.5%, indicating a strong demand for pig sources [1] - However, there are concerns about oversupply as pig production capacity is expected to increase in September, which may counteract the recent price increases [1] Regional Price Variations - As of September 3, 2023, pig prices vary across regions, with Guangdong at 15.9 yuan/kg and Xinjiang at 12.75 yuan/kg, reflecting regional supply and demand conditions [2]

Position Data - Not provided in the content

Core Viewpoint - The recent decline in pig prices has been observed, with live pig and pork prices dropping for six consecutive weeks, while piglet prices have decreased for 15 weeks. Despite this, pig farming has remained profitable due to lower breeding costs [1][6].
