SunSirs: Swine Industry Faces Deep Adjustment Again; Industry Conference Calls for Capacity Control and Strong Self-Discipline

According to Shanghai Securities News, since the third quarter, the swine industry has been undergoing a painful period of deep adjustment: swine prices have continued to decline, profitability among listed swine enterprises has generally fallen, and some have even suffered temporary losses. The industry faces dual pressures of overcapacity and high debt.

At the 2025 Swine Industry Development Conference, representatives from government departments, industry associations, and leading enterprises agreed that amid intensifying internal competition, urgent measures are needed to regulate capacity and enforce industry self-discipline. These steps are essential to navigate the crisis and achieve high-quality development.

By the end of the third quarter, the national breeding sow inventory stood at 40.35 million, indicating that hog production capacity remains temporarily elevated. In the first three quarters of this year, large-scale breeding enterprises saw their hog shipments increase by nearly 30% year-on-year. Blind expansion carries significant risks of strained or even broken capital chains.
