Report Overview - Report Title: Pig Daily Report - Report Date: December 17, 2025 - Industry: Pig Farming 1. Industry Investment Rating - No investment rating information is provided in the report. 2. Core Viewpoints - The supply of live pigs is expected to maintain a slight increasing trend. There is dual supply pressure due to concentrated second - fattening and pressure - keeping in October and continuous capacity release, which continues to put pressure on the 01 and 03 contracts. However, the price decline compared to the same period last year is large, and recent northern epidemics have intensified, triggering a low - level rebound sentiment, increasing the frequency of bottom oscillations. - On the spot market, both supply and demand are increasing. Second - fattening is mainly in a wait - and - see mode, with weak support for prices. Spot prices are oscillating strongly due to the demand for curing and enema [7][9]. 3. Summary by Directory 3.1 Market Review and Operation Suggestions 3.1.1 Market Conditions - Futures: On the 16th, the main 2603 contract of live pigs opened flat, then bottomed out and rebounded, fluctuating higher, closing in the positive territory.

The utilization rate of second - fattening pens is relatively high, slightly higher than the same period last year, increasing the supply pressure before the Spring Festival. In December, the planned slaughter of sample breeding enterprises is 27.72 million heads, with a monthly planned increase of 4.64%. Currently, the overall completion progress of many regional groups is slightly slow [7]. - Demand: Currently, second - fattening is mainly in a wait - and - see mode. There may still be a small amount of rolling restocking demand in December. With the continuous cooling of the weather, the demand for curing and enema is increasing, and terminal consumer demand is rising. The orders of slaughtering enterprises are increasing, which significantly supports the slaughter volume. On December 16th, the slaughter volume of sample slaughtering enterprises was 190,800 heads, down 300 heads from the previous day, up 8600 heads week - on - week, and up 24,000 heads month - on - month [7]. - Policy: China imposes anti - dumping duties on imported related pork and pork by - products from the EU, but the impact is very limited due to the extremely low proportion compared to domestic consumption [7]. 3.2 Data Overview - November actual slaughter volume of Yongyi sample enterprises was 26.49 million heads, with a completion rate of 99.36%.
