Shandong has issued a series of policies to stabilize pork prices

The reporter learned from Shandong Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Bureau that Shandong province has introduced a series of policies and measures to stabilize pig production, such as pig farm insurance, direct subsidies for pig farms, discounts and guarantees for pig farming and slaughtering enterprises, and to stabilize pork prices.

In pig farming insurance, Shandong Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Bureau subsidized the insurance premiums of fattening pigs and fertile sows for the main body of pig farming in Shandong Province, and increased the insurance coverage. The insurance premiums for fertile sows were 72 yuan/head, the insurance amount was 1200 yuan/head; the insurance premiums for fattening pigs were 48 yuan/head and the insurance amount was 800 yuan/head. The premium shall be borne by the peasant households themselves, and the remaining part shall be borne by the governments at all levels.

In accordance with the relevant provisions, Shandong Province, on this basis, temporarily increased the insurance coverage of fertile sows, which will increase the insurance coverage of fertile sows to 1500 yuan. The implementation period of the policy will be from May 1, 1919 to December 31, 2020. In terms of direct subsidy for pig farms, Shandong Provincial (excluding Qingdao) grants temporary production subsidy to 45 first-class pig farms. The subsidy fund is used to make up for the cost of feeding, the manpower and materials needed for epidemic prevention and control, the purchase of medicines, equipment and equipment, and the breeding of pigs, so as to stabilize the scale of existing pigs and lay the foundation for the smooth resumption of production in the later period.

In the interest of pig breeding slaughtering enterprises, in Shandong Province, there are pig farms with pig production and operation permit (including local pig breeding grounds), pig farms with more than 5000 farms in the year, obtaining pollutant discharge permit, animal epidemic prevention qualification certificate, pig slaughtering certificate and legally announced scale. The above pig slaughtering and processing enterprises are all discount objects. In addition, Shandong Province has also relaxed the policy-oriented agricultural credit guarantee provisions, including the guarantee projects with the loan scale of 3 million to 10 million yuan for pig farms and pig farms from May 28, 2019 to October 31, 2019, and enjoyed the guarantee rate subsidy policy.
