According to AsianAgribiz, China will maintain stable pork production in the next five years, targeting an output of 57.6 million tonnes by 2020, compared with 56.71 million tonnes in 2014 and 50.71 million in 2010.
In its five-year plan, the Ministry of Agriculture said it also targets to expand the proportion of large-scale pig farms, which are defined as with a stock of more than 500 heads, to 52% in 2020 from 42% in 2014. The plan also identified seven provinces (Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Chongqing, Guangxi, Sichuan and Hainan) as main pork production areas, with potential for production in the northeast provinces (Liaoning, Jilin, Heilongjiang and Inner Mongolia), and in Yunnan and Guizhou in the southwest.
