Chapter 511 Trading Market (2)

Piglets are delivered in December, now it is May...

In Yunshan District, that is, the piglets have just entered the building, and it is time to plan to order the next batch of piglets, which is almost exactly 6 months.

6 months, breeding companies can plan ahead.

Domestic breeding companies are actually much larger than many people imagined.For example, the Zhou Group, their stock of sows is about 120 million, and the stock of fertile sows is now 96... sows produce two litters a year, and five litters every two years...

96 sows, the most conservative estimate in a year, can produce 1200 million piglets.This is the most conservative estimate... The sows specially bred by large companies can produce an average of ten litters per litter.

Anyway, the more you book in advance, the lower the price of piglets.There are many factors that affect the price of piglets, such as the number of sows on hand, grain prices, labor costs and so on.But six or even seven months in advance, large companies have enough preparation time to plan breeding, purchase grain at low prices, and so on.

The number of piglets from June to November is limited.But by December, there is no limit to the piglets...

The piglets from June to November are paid in full, and the transaction amount is collected first by Yunshan Market as a third-party company.At the same time, Yunshan Market will also be responsible for the delivery of both parties and provide legal services...

可12月份的猪苗，不限量。但这个合同在5月份内生成了，交割期是11月20日——12月20日。

12月份的猪苗，一手合同是100头猪苗，猪苗重量在18——22公斤之间，一头猪苗价格是350元……一手合同价值3.5万元。但只需要支付3500元和一笔保证金就能买到一手合同……

Unlimited...

At this point, the piglet contract in December has completely become a futures contract, and it is a futures that can be delivered without spot delivery...

Since it is futures, there must be buying up and buying down. Yunshan Market only acts as a middleman to earn the difference.

There are piglet futures.But no lamb futures...

There are too many breeds of sheep.There are more than a dozen kinds of sheep raised in Yunshan District.Yunshan District only serves as an intermediate link in the procurement of lambs...because it is difficult to set a fixed price for lambs.

Hall 3 is the lamb procurement information release hall.

Hall No. 4 is the central location on the first floor, which is used to handle various businesses.

5 good halls, one comprehensive hall.Here are the various information posted...

On the first floor, the main service targets are companies in Yunshan District.The area is large, but it also seems very empty...

The second floor is the real market, which is mainly divided into two areas, one is the trading area and the other is the market area.

There are several large screens in the trading area.

On the big screen No. 1, it was written: The piglet contract in December... the price of 12 lot is 1 yuan.

Piglets are live pigs.

There are 9 companies that provide piglet contracts, including Zhou's Company, Kang's Group, and Hegu Animal Husbandry and Yunshan Company.

Yunshan Market is only a middleman, providing a trading platform.

The price of one lot is 1 yuan. In fact, it only costs 3.5 yuan to buy a first-hand contract, and then a deposit of 3500% of the contract value is provided, which is a total of 20.00 yuan.After the contract is completed and delivered, the security deposit will be refunded...

These nine companies have 461 million breeding sows on hand, which can support the market.

As for the transaction model, the nine companies provided the Zhumiao contract to the Yunshan Market, and then the Yunshan Market operated it... There is a lot of room for manipulation.But Yunshan Market does not act as a market dealer, but only as a middleman, and everything is left to the market...

Since it is futures, you can buy up or down.

To buy up means to buy contracts from the Yunshan market.To buy or sell is to 'borrow' a contract from Yunshan Market and sell it...

The delivery period for the piglet futures in the Yunshan market is fixed, and the delivery period for the May contract will be from November 11th to December 20th.

The trading rules are similar to the trading rules of futures...but there are also differences.However, the number of contracts generated in May has been fixed, and everything can be controlled...

Piglets are not mines after all, so they cannot be kept.

In a transaction, a buy contract will generate a sell contract.But in reality, there must be more contracts bought than contracts sold.Because there are many farms in Yunshan District that do not breed piglets themselves...and as long as this market matures, even the Yunshan Group will not plan to breed piglets by themselves.

China is a big pork consumer, consuming 9 billion pigs a year.There are 12 piglet suppliers in the Yunshan market, and they have no way to completely control the price of piglets in December...

The number of buying contracts and selling contracts must be different. When the delivery date comes, there must be no way to close all the positions of the pig seedling contracts.By the end of May, the purchase contract minus the sale contract is basically equal to the real delivery contract...

350 yuan for a piglet is very cheap at the current price, quite cheap.

Keyunshan Market and nine companies signed a contract for piglets in December, and the price of a piglet is 12 yuan.Moreover, they also need to deliver the piglets to the designated place... The headquarters of these nine companies are located in different parts of the country, and the piglet delivery locations are also divided into many places, and all of them have been built.

The planned breeding work is done 6 days in advance, and the piglets at 330 yuan a head are also very profitable for these companies.Even if these companies are not in Yunshan District...

What Yunshan Market did was actually to control the price of piglets at a relatively stable price.

In order to facilitate transactions, Yunshan Market has also created a special APP software, which can be downloaded to computers and mobile phones.

There are piglet contracts, but no lamb contracts.The pork market consumes a lot, but the mutton market is far behind. The pork market is too much, and there are many types of breeding...

Since Yunshan Market has a piglet contract, it also has a lean pig contract... The standard for lean pigs is over 200 catties.

At the same time, it is still selling contracts for fattening sheep.

Yunshan District is raising fattening sheep, which has been counted.The number of sheep that go out of the building in various time periods in the entire Yunshan District... This year, Yunshan District is preparing to raise and fatten sheep in the room, and prepare to raise them for winter and then sell them...

In the entire Yunshan District, the number of mutton sheep on hand is 243 million.Yunshan Group raises close to 100 million mutton sheep... All of these mutton sheep can be slaughtered this year.

Before October, the breeding companies in Yunshan District had no sheep to sell. In October, only 10 mutton sheep were prepared to be sold according to statistics... The remaining mutton sheep are all ready to be traded within the two months of November and December.

The breeds of sheep raised by different companies are different.Some companies raise ibex, a specialty of the South Island.In the entire Yunshan District, the breeds of sheep raised include Dorper sheep, Boer goats, Hu sheep, Charolais sheep and so on.Different sheep have different slaughter rates, and the meat taste is also different. Naturally, the prices are also different...

Yunshan Market has also made different futures contracts for the mutton sheep that are going to be sold at the end of the year...

For example, Yunshan Group's Boer goats, live sheep, sell for 1 yuan per kilogram.The price of 26.85 kg of Boer goats and live sheep of Fuyou Company is 1 yuan...

The breeding time of sheep is different, the fat and thinness are different, the slaughter rate is also different, and the price is also different.
