When the reporter asked about the current corn price, Ms. Yang sighed and said, "The price quoted by the processing enterprises that came to the village to collect corn a while ago was 1.3 yuan per catty, which has been' sky-high' here for several years. This spring, the purchase price was only 89 cents per catty. "
Ms. Yang said, "After the epidemic was controlled this spring, I sold 1000 kilograms of corn. At that time, the price was 90 cents a kilogram, which I think was already relatively high. You know, now that it can rise above 1, I might as well stay and sell it now. " There is no lack of regret in her words.
The reporter simply converted it at the price of 1.3 yuan/kg, which is equivalent to 2,600 yuan per ton.
Extended data:
The price increase of corn drives the price increase of feed.
Corn is not only the main food crop in China, but also one of the main raw materials for breeding feed. Therefore, the rise in corn prices has also led to the rise in feed prices.
Henan Xinxin Animal Husbandry Co., Ltd. is a large-scale breeding company with more than 60,000 live pigs. The company has its own feed processing plant. Zhang Xinyu, general manager of the company, told the reporter of National Business Daily that they not only received corn directly from farmers, but also bought corn from purchasing enterprises.
Zhang Xinyu said frankly that compared with the same period last year, the price of corn rose by more than 20% per ton this year. "Last year, the purchase price of corn was less than 2,000 yuan per ton, which was about 1.800 ~ 1.900 yuan. Now the actual transaction price has risen to 2,400 yuan to 2,500 yuan per ton. "
For large-scale farms, the rise in corn prices also means a substantial increase in feed costs.
Daily economy-the purchase price in many places has increased by 30% in half a year. Pig enterprises have a feed cost of 1 yuan per catty of pork.
