    Introduction: farmers of a certain age all know that before the reform and opening up, the market needs fat pigs, and the fatter the pork is, the more popular it is; after the reform and opening up, people gradually want to eat lean meat, so the farmers began to raise some lean meat pigs, until now, the price of lean meat pigs is 0.5-0.6 yuan higher than that of ordinary pigs per kilogram However, the demand of the market is always changing Whoever has the foresight to the change of the market will have an advantage in the future competition Many farmer friends are very concerned about, in the next few years, China's pork market, which varieties of pigs will be more popular in the market? With the improvement of people's living standards, people's demand for pork is not the same, forming a diversified demand In the future, the development trend of pig breeding will gradually develop from the current high lean type of pigs to high-quality pork High quality pork sounds a bit mysterious We usually only know fat, thin, ribs, pig's hoof, etc pork has different prices because it exists in different parts of the pig Will pork produce 369 grades because of the pig's lineage in the future? So, what kind of pig will become the aristocrat in the pig kingdom in the future? There are many varieties and rich local varieties in China, and the biggest characteristic of local varieties in China is good meat quality The so-called high-quality pork should have several indicators, the first one is its color should be bright red, the second one is its pH value is relatively high, and the third one is its tenderness So, the fourth index is intramuscular fat, which is the content of fat in lean meat In China, these indexes are all up to the standard of high quality pork No wonder, many consumers are always thinking about pork in the past In addition to its good meat quality, high reproduction rate and strong disease resistance, the local breed of pig in China has another weakness, which is its slow growth and low lean meat rate These reasons determine that its price will be significantly higher than that of lean meat type pig Therefore, in recent years, its market share will not be too large The lean type pig grows fast and has a high lean rate So, is there a way to have both a fish and a bear's paw? The answer is yes But it's more like a compromise In order to produce a kind of hybrid pig with about 50% pedigree, a planned crossbreeding of foreign lean meat type pig and domestic excellent local breed is introduced This kind of hybrid pig has two advantages, one is fast growth, high lean meat rate, good meat quality and high reproduction rate Therefore, in the future, this kind of hybrid pig should be developed in the market Therefore, in a certain period of time in the future, lean pork still has a wide market; but the market also has a certain demand for high-quality pork and hybrid pork, and with the improvement of people's living standards, the market share of high-quality pork and hybrid pork will certainly increase I also want to remind the farmers here: when you decide to engage in high-quality pig breeding, you must pay attention to the selection of varieties, such as the famous Taihu Pig in the south, the famous Beijing black pig in the north, etc only when you select the varieties, you will be in an invincible position in the fierce market competition (author:) share to feed Weibo share to:
