Florfenicol 570, Down Over 8%, Tilmicosin Down Over 4%...

Entering the new year, various varieties of veterinary drug raw materials have continued to decline. Among the veterinary drug raw materials monitored by the China Veterinary Drug and Feed Trading Center, florfenicol has led the decline.

On the 5th, the average price of florfenicol was 570 yuan/kg, down 8.80% from the previous month. After four months, the price returned to below 600.

In addition to florfenicol, the prices of tiamulin, doxycycline hydrochloride and other products have also declined to varying degrees.

On the whole, after New Year's Day, the veterinary drug API market continued to operate weakly, with light trading, lack of market confidence, and average transactions.

The epidemic is superimposed on stocking before the festival, and history repeats itself?

Entering the twelfth lunar month, there is a demand for pre-holiday stocking downstream, which may drive the overall downstream demand for veterinary APIs and boost market confidence.

At the same time, it is necessary to pay special attention to the recent domestic epidemic situation, especially the epidemic situation in Henan and other places where veterinary raw materials are produced, and replenish and adjust the goods in time to prevent the recurrence of the situation in early 2021.

At the beginning of 2021, the epidemic situation in Hebei, an important production area of veterinary drug raw materials, was repeated and entered a wartime state. Due to the needs of epidemic prevention and control, many expressways in Hebei were prohibited from going on the road and persuaded to return vehicles. The abnormal logistics has resulted in the lack of an important part of the normal supply of veterinary drug raw materials, the imbalance of supply and demand, and the shortage of stock has become the current norm. The epidemic situation superimposed the pre-holiday stocking, and the price of veterinary drug raw materials rose in response.

At the same time point, the same event, the pre-holiday stockpiling superimposed on the epidemic prevention and control of the main producing areas of veterinary drug raw materials, and whether the operation of the veterinary drug raw materials market will repeat history, we may wish to wait and see.
