Soybean meal has become the focus
of attention in the aquaculture industry at present.
From January to August this year, the average price of soybean meal in the domestic market reached 4,280 yuan per ton, an increase of 1,400 yuan over 2019, driving the feed cost to increase by more than 200 yuan per ton, and the direct cost of each fattening pig out of the slaughter increased by nearly 70 yuan
.
Since September, international soybean prices have changed, and domestic soybean meal prices have risen again, exceeding historical highs
.
China is a large country in the production and consumption of animal products, in recent years, the import dependence of feed raw materials is high, of which the production of feed soybean meal almost all depends on imported soybeans, and the price of soybean meal is highly correlated
with the international soybean price.
In this regard, the majority of breeding enterprises and feed production enterprises conform to the general trend of consumption reduction and emission reduction, actively explore the technical model of soybean meal reduction and substitution, accelerate the transformation to the scientific breeding method of precise formula and precise feeding, and improve the competitiveness
of enterprises.
Important measures to save costs and increase efficiency
"Soybean meal reduction and substitution is not only a passive choice to cope with the uncertainty of external supply, but also an initiative to promote high-quality development, which is of great significance
to farmers to save costs, feed producers to save feed, the whole industry to increase efficiency, and the whole society to safety.
" Ma Youxiang, vice minister of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, said that the tight balance between supply and demand is the long-term situation of China's food security, ration consumption has reached a peak and shown a downward trend, feed consumption is still increasing, and the prominent contradiction of China's food security is manifested in feed grain
.
With the improvement of the large-scale level of aquaculture, in the past 20 years, the consumption of industrial feed has increased
at an average annual rate of 6.
9%.
Preliminary forecasts show that by 2030, the demand for feed grain consumption will increase
.
Faced with this situation, we must make a fuss
about the way resources are used.
Chen Shiyan, academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and professor at China Agricultural University, said: "Meat consumption is growing rigidly, and the aquaculture industry is under pressure
.
This forces us to make full use of the research results of modern animal nutrition, fully tap and recycle the rich resources in China, and make the aquaculture industry save costs and increase efficiency
.
"Reducing the demand for soybean meal feed is mainly through the promotion of high-quality, low-protein diet technology and the replacement of soybean meal with other mixed meal
.
Practice has proved that by adding industrial synthetic amino acids to feed and supplementing the short board nutrients in raw materials, it can effectively reduce the amount of protein in feed and reduce waste
.
Guangdong is a major feed production province, and soybean meal is also transferred to a large province
.
Liu Lianhui, deputy director of the Department of Agriculture and Rural Affairs of Guangdong Province, said that under the situation that global food security is severely challenged and national food security is tightly balanced, it is particularly important
for Guangdong Province to promote the reduction and substitution of soybean meal and reduce the import dependence of soybean meal.
According to statistics, from January to August this year, the consumption of soybean meal, a bulk raw material in the feed industry in the province, changed the trend of continuous growth in previous years, and the use of soybean meal decreased by 5.
67% year-on-year; The use of coarse grains and miscellaneous meal increased significantly, of which the use of sorghum increased by 40.
15% year-on-year, the use of bran increased by 22.
35%, and the use of cottonseed meal increased by 15.
32%.
Du Minghong, second-level inspector of Shandong Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Bureau, introduced that since 2020, Shandong has advocated the promotion of low-protein, low-energy, high-quality feed products and technologies
in the feed industry in the province.
In 2021, the proportion of soybean meal added to industrial feed in the province decreased from 13% in the previous year to 11.
6%, and the safety level of feed grain supply was further improved
.
At present, the "zero use" of corn and soybean meal has basically been realized in meat and duck feed, and the amount of feed used in the later stage of meat poultry and pigs has also been significantly reduced
.
Both ends of supply and demand exert force at the same time
Since 2018, the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs has vigorously guided feed breeding enterprises to promote low-protein diets, and the whole industry has responded
positively.
All localities have focused on "improving efficiency and saving food, open source substitution", reducing the amount of soybean meal on the demand side and increasing the supply of alternative resources on the supply side, which has achieved good results
.
In 2021, in the feed consumed by the national breeding industry, soybean meal accounted for 15.
3%, down 2.
5 percentage points from 2017, saving 11 million tons of soybean meal, equivalent to 14 million tons of soybeans, equivalent to more than 100 million mu of arable land output
.
Qin Yinglin, chairman of Muyuan Food Co.
, Ltd.
, said that in recent years, the cumulative reduction of Muyuan soybean meal has reached 5.
84 million tons
.
There are two major supports behind this: one is technology research and development
.
The Makihara Swine Nutrition Research Institute has 213 R&D technicians who have been focusing on pig nutrition research
for a long time.
The second is intelligent support
.
Intelligent equipment can achieve one formula per day, while using precise feeding and accurate metering to ensure the effective implementation of
low-protein diets.
From the four aspects of reproductive performance, growth rate, feed remuneration and meat quality, the feeding situation is very gratifying, and the overall cost is low and the effect is good
.
As one of the largest pig and yellow-feathered broiler breeding enterprises in China, Wen has comprehensively promoted the alternative of soybean meal reduction in livestock and poultry feed, and technically realized the formula
of chicken, pig and duck without soybean meal.
In 2021, the alternative technology of soybean meal reduction saved the Group more than
120 yuan / ton in feed costs.
Zhang Xiangbin, vice president of Wen's Food Group Co.
, Ltd.
, introduced that the main idea is "one minus one replacement"
.
"Reduce", that is, develop and apply low-protein multi-amino acid balance formula technology for livestock and poultry to reduce the amount of formula protein raw materials; "Replacement", that is, accurate evaluation of the nutritional value of various protein raw materials, replacing soybean meal
.
The core of the technology is to study one by one to determine the appropriate ratio
of various essential amino acids to lysine at different stages in different animals.
"In 2021, New Hope produced about 30 million tons of feed, ranking first
in the world.
This year, the company expects to produce 30 million tons of feed and reduce the amount of soybean meal by 900,000 tons
.
Liu Yonghao, chairman of New Hope Group Co.
, Ltd.
, said that a raw material formula database has been established, including more than 200 kinds of non-raw food feed raw materials and more than 30 kinds of non-soybean meal protein raw materials, and the parameter indicators cover 320 items
in 5 categories.
Relying on the rapid analysis and detection of nearly 300 near-infrared detectors of the group, in vitro bionic digestion evaluation and other technologies, the database is calibrated
.
With the application of the database, without reducing the production performance, the level of pig feed protein decreased by 1.
5 percentage points, the protein level of egg and poultry feed decreased by 1 percentage point, and the reduction of soybean meal achieved remarkable results
.
In the workshop of Ganzhou Liandoli Feed Technology Co.
, Ltd.
, located in Tianjiu Town, Dingnan County, Ganzhou City, Jiangxi Province, workers are busy loading feed
.
The company implements diversified ration technology of coarse grain meal, and the unconventional raw materials in the current feed raw material nutritional value database have included 127 kinds of raw materials
such as cotton meal, rapeseed meal, peanut meal, and palm meal.
At the same time, a low-protein and high-amino acid balanced diet was prepared to meet the needs of pigs and poultry at different physiological stages and reduce the demand for
soybean meal.
Li Jianmin, the head of the company, said that the amount of soybean meal in the company's pig and poultry feed formula has been further reduced this year on the basis of an average of about 12% in 2021, among which the pig feed of the company's own pig farms and some fattening pig formulas can already achieve soybean meal free formula
.
From January to October this year, the company achieved livestock and poultry feed sales of about 60,000 tons, relatively saving more than 2,500 tons
of soybean meal.
Strengthen policy and technical support
The reporter learned that the reduction and replacement of soybean meal still faces some urgent problems
.
First, ideological understanding is not in place
.
Some places do not have enough understanding of the importance of soybean meal reduction and substitution, some farmers one-sidedly believe that the higher the protein content of feed, the better, and some places believe that cultivated land can only grow grain and not grass
.
Second, the foundation support is not in place
.
Resource investigation and basic research are not in-depth enough, the resource base is not clear, and the standard system is incomplete
.
Third, policy support is not in place
.
There is a lack of support policies for grain conservation, consumption reduction and emission reduction, tax exemption policies for the production of new protein feed resources, and policies for selling aged grain to feed breeding enterprises
.
"Judging from the effect of promotion in the past two years, there is still a lot to be done
with low-protein diet technology.
" Ma Youxiang analyzed that on the one hand, there is room for
further reduction in the amount of soybean meal.
In the feed produced by 33 million-ton feed enterprises in the country, soybean meal accounted for an average of 11.
8%, 3.
5 percentage points
lower than the industry average.
On the other hand, China's amino acid industry is at the world's leading level, with the ability to produce all animal essential amino acids, production and export volume are in the forefront of the world, most of the product prices have been reduced to the acceptable degree of feed breeding enterprises, providing a strong guarantee
for expanding the scope of low-protein ration technology promotion and application.
Chen Shiyan said that in the future, we should continue to focus on improving technical support and increasing policy support
.
In terms of technical support, strengthen the research on feeding technology of alternative raw materials for corn and soybean meal, and carry out integrated demonstrations
of supporting technical solutions.
Vigorously promote the preparation technology of high-quality low-protein diet for pigs and chickens, and organize demonstration and promotion and effect tracking and evaluation
.
Accelerate the study of the feasibility of the application of low-protein diets in other livestock and poultry breeds, and gradually expand the scope of
technical application.
Vigorously develop the forage industry, promote the planting of grass in idle farmland and rotation of grassland, increase the supply of high-quality forage such as whole silage corn, alfalfa, forage oats, ryegrass, etc
.
, and guide cattle and sheep breeding to reduce feed grain consumption.
In terms of policy support, direct sales of stocked aged grain to feed production enterprises will increase the selection space of feed raw materials, reduce breeding costs, and reduce financial subsidies and inventory pressure
.
Accelerate the improvement of animal husbandry grain conservation, consumption reduction and emission reduction support policies, introduce subsidies for the application of low-protein feed, give value-added tax and income tax exemptions to manufacturers of new protein feed products such as microbial protein, and improve the guarantee policy
for forage planting land.
"In the face of the heavier task of stabilizing the production and supply of animal products and tightening resource and environmental constraints, we must take more effective measures to give full play to the potential of reducing and substituting feed grains such as soybean meal to ensure feed grain supply and maintain food security
.
" Ma Youxiang said that it is necessary to strengthen departmental linkage, ministry and provincial linkage, government-enterprise linkage, science and technology enterprise linkage, give full play to the role of industry associations, deeply implement soybean meal reduction and substitution actions in the whole industry, step up efforts to promote low-protein diet technology, accelerate the development and utilization of alternative resources, focus on increasing the supply of high-quality forage, strengthen policy and technical support, and firmly grasp the initiative of
stable production and supply of the aquaculture industry.
