In the early hours of the morning, a toll station on the highway into Vietnam.

"Hurry up, all the disinfection and quarantine personnel have changed into isolation gowns and wrapped me tightly from head to toe. Lao Li, the head of the disinfection and quarantine team, commanded loudly.

The so-called "isolation clothing", that is, protective clothing, must be worn in at least two layers, and shoe covers must be two or three layers, mainly because of the fear of bacteria on the quarantine personnel, and wearing this is to cut off the contact between bacteria and the outside world.

After the staff were wrapped in tight isolation gowns, they all looked extremely bloated and a little clumsy on the road.

Lao Li turned a blind eye and waved them to enter the work immediately: "It's coming, it's coming, the transport convoy is coming, everyone is in place." ”

In the distance, the pickup trucks of the traffic police lined up, and in the dim headlights, the exhaust smoke rose into the air and quickly disappeared into the boundless night.

Behind it is a continuous convoy of large, fully enclosed breeding pigs, which fills the highway so full that there is no end in sight in the night.

The entire high-speed toll booth site has been cordoned off, and several personnel in white protective clothing jumped down from the convoy, walked to the side and talked to the waiting quarantine staff for a few words, and then directed the transport convoy to slowly drive to the disinfection point.

There are three rounds of disinfection: white ash, disinfectant water at the car wash point, and disinfectant spray. The disinfection process of the whole car is completed, so that it can drive through the consumption station in an orderly manner.

"Damn, what is the origin of this convoy, the battle is so big, and there are traffic police escorting the whole process?" Xiao Song, a staff member who had just handed over the shift, asked in surprise.

After arranging the work scheduling, Lao Li took a breath before saying: "Who else can it be? The pig transportation fleet of Jiagu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry has been transferred from the pig farm in Min Province to the Jiagu Pig Farm in our province. ”

Xiao Song tiptoed, still unable to see the end of the convoy, and couldn't help but speak: "God, how big is the scale of this transition?"

"This batch, a total of 10,000 breeding pigs, isn't it an exaggeration?"

"Tsk, that's an exaggeration. ”

"This is not an exaggeration, among the tasks I received, there are five batches of Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry, and each batch of breeding pigs is more than 10,000 heads. And this is just the transportation of breeding pigs in our province. It is said that Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry in the southeastern provinces of the inter-provincial transfer of breeding pigs go hand in hand......"

", Jiagu is going to do a big job, this at least involves tens of billions of output value, right? No wonder there are traffic police who open the way. ”

The corners of Lao Li's mouth twitched, and he said, "What is the traffic police department?"

He pointed to a group of people parked about 100 meters away from the convoy - the limit at which outsiders could approach the transporter.

Some people are calling, some people are flipping through the information or something, and words such as "African swine fever", "quarantine" and "coordination" are spread from afar.

In order to ensure the smooth transportation of breeding pigs, the National Development and Reform Commission, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Communications, etc. sent people to set up a special support service team to provide services throughout the process, such as contacting the local government to issue quarantine bills, coordinating various inspection sites, and ensuring the smooth passage of vehicles. Lao Li subconsciously lowered his voice and said: "Under the current severe situation of non-plague epidemic prevention and control, the risk of importing the epidemic caused by the inter-provincial transfer of live pigs is extremely great. This unique treatment can only be enjoyed by Jiagu. ”

"Why, just by Jiagu's reputation?"

"Heh, you know. Do you think that in the current situation, apart from Jiagu, there are still people who dare to take this risk?" Lao Li held a cigarette, and the smoke swirled in the night.

Lao Li, who has been stationed at the quarantine point of the consumer station since the outbreak of the non-plague, may be more well-informed than many so-called "industry experts".

The pig industry has entered the "non-plague era", completely subverting many of the principles and models that were originally enshrined as golden rules - neglecting epidemic prevention, focusing on treatment, greedy for scale, and ignoring management; At the same time, some new technologies, new applications, and new concepts have been enshrined as new golden rules, such as the concept of biological prevention and control in Jiagu pig farms.

As we all know, Jiagu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry has the largest number of super-large pig farms in China, and a large part of them are distributed in traditional breeding intensive areas, that is, non-plague-stricken areas.

It is not surprising that the Jiagu pig farm has been able to "keep out the non-plague virus", but the Jiagu pig farm has taken the lead in a major expansion, which has surprised many.

Let's put it this way, if you do a good job in biological prevention and control and closed production, non-plague is still basically controllable. After all, the non-plague virus has no legs, make up for the shortcomings and loopholes of the pig farm, and transform the hardware, even small pig farms can survive.

But if there is a large-scale transition like Jiagu farming, the risk will increase exponentially.

Even if you do a good job of biological control in Jiagu, the more risk you are exposed, the greater the chance of being infected, which is an immutable truth.

Lao Li belongs to people who have a good impression of Jiagu, but he still feels that it is too risky for the expansion of Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry.

Xiao Song watched the sterilized transport trucks pass through the quarantine station and disappear into the vast night, and couldn't help but say: "It's worth the risk, I guess, Jiagu is trying to grab the biggest dividend in the history of the pig cycle." ”

It's not hard to guess.

It is true that the non-plague swept the country, but it also created a super pig cycle.

Now the pig price has exceeded 20 yuan, and as long as the pig price can fluctuate above 20 yuan, the major pig companies will get a lot of profits. With such a large profit margin in pig prices, it is not normal for the ambitious Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry not to actively grab dividends.

The major leading pig enterprises have also shown their ambitions to expand production, but an indisputable fact is that the investment cost per pig has greatly increased! African swine fever has made the pig industry a high-risk and high-reward business. In order to control the risk, the investment in hardware is naturally more and more - it will take at least 2 years for large-scale pig farms to start construction and commercial pigs to be slaughtered.

The expansion strategy of Jiagu agriculture and animal husbandry is very clear: to fight fast and slow.

As soon as the news of the non-plague was confirmed, all the pig farm projects under construction were immediately accelerated, and it took less than 4 months to complete them. Then, despite the threat of the "extraordinary" period, large-scale transfer of breeding pigs into production.

If the dividend grabbing is successful, Jiagu Agriculture and Animal Husbandry will undoubtedly reach the top in the super pig cycle.

But......

"The premise is that the Jiagu pig farm does not overturn in the non-plague. "Lao Li has a look of your nonsense.

Jiagu pig farm has an extremely bright performance in the prevention and control of non-plague in the early stage, which has attracted many followers. But on the other hand, as long as there is a non-plague epidemic in the Jiagu pig farm, it will definitely go high and low, and it will become a big joke.

Lao Li, who has passed puberty, has a hard time agreeing with Jiagu's adventurous choice.

But Xiao Song was a little excited: "This is the real big test of Jiagu pig raising! To be honest, I hope that Jiagu can pass the test smoothly, if it is all pork that has risen in price, I hope that Jiagu can produce it." Jiagu pig raising is more professional, and Jiagu pork is also of higher quality!"
