Lift freeze on pigs from Perak, urge Klang Valley butchers

KUALA LUMPUR: The KL Selangor Butchers’ Association has called on Putrajaya to lift the freeze on the transport of pigs to the Klang Valley from Perak to overcome the current pork shortage.

Its chairman Lee Peng Hock said Klang Valley needed 3,000 pigs a day to cater to the current demand. However, butchers are only supplied a herd of 500 heads a day from farms in Selangor.

“About 80% of our pork supplies are from Penang and Perak. Right now, pork supply in Penang has been halted due to the African Swine Fever (ASF) outbreak.

“And because of this, Perak’s supply has also been halted because the government is worried that the virus would be transmitted,” he said at a press conference, pointing out that this has been a problem since Chinese New Year. Also present at the press conference was DAP’s Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng.

Lee said farmers in Perak have had their swine tested for ASF by a private company. Although the pigs were found to be uninfected, the reports were not accepted by the agriculture ministry.

Lee said the shortage had affected the price of pork in the Klang Valley and urged the government to resolve the issue immediately before supply ran out.

As at Jan 28, a total of 23 pig farms in Penang were found to be affected by ASF, according to chief minister Chow Kon Yeow.

The most recent detection of ASF was in a wild boar in Negeri Sembilan.

Pig farmers fret over ASF with some planning to quit industry

Friday, 10 Feb 2023

PETALING JAYA: Pig farmers and butchers say that they are worried that the African swine fever (ASF) has reached “pandemic proportions”, with some already thinking of quitting the industry.

As certain states with big farms such as Perak do not have well-equipped slaughterhouses, live pigs are usually sent to Selangor to be slaughtered to enable fresh pork to reach customers in the shortest time.

As at Jan 31, the Veterinary Services Department (DVS) has placed an interstate ban on transport of live pigs from Perak and Penang to Selangor.
 

This has caused a surplus of live pigs in these two states, and lack of pork in other states where the demand is high, especially Selangor.

Perak Animal Husbandry Association president David Lee Chli Yuan said that as most pork retailers and consumers are from Selangor, some Perak farms tried butchering their pigs at the only slaughterhouse in Ipoh before transporting the processed parts to Selangor.

There is no ban on the movement of processed pork parts.

“However, due to the slaughterhouse not having a cold storage and most farmers also not having any refrigerated trucks, the meat turned bad quickly and, as a result, could not be transported to Selangor,” he said.

He added that Perak farms are currently forced to send most of their excess overgrown pigs to slaughterhouses in Kuantan.

A veteran pig farmer from Melaka, known as Chua, said he culled 2,000 pigs following the outbreak of ASF in the state early last year.

He is now not sure whether to continue rearing pigs as it is too costly and risky, although subsidies received from DVS covered the losses to some extent.

“I’ve already been selling at a loss during the movement control order from 2020 to 2021. ASF then hit my farm and caused the loss of my entire business.

“I lost over a million ringgit and while we were promised subsidies from the DVS, nothing was announced or given to us for almost a year.

“I am now not sure if I will continue operating pig farms anymore as not only are the costs high but the risks of a random disease popping out and killing my animals are too high,” he said.

猪肉价格猛涨80%　连锁效应冲击相关行业

发布于 2023年01月04日 17时26分

（昔加末4日讯）非洲猪瘟威胁及饲料上涨两大因素，导致国内猪肉价格在短短一年内猛涨80%，家庭主妇纷纷转买其他肉类，餐馆转用冷冻进口猪肉，就连肉干业者也开始研发“鸡猪合一”的肉乾，使猪肉摊贩生意量大减至少25%。

民主行动党利民达州议员黄炣卿今日走访昔加末巿区，向赌肉摊贩、熟食小贩及猪肉食品业者了解猪肉价格短短一年内涨幅80%情况，聆听上述行业人士的心声。

根据猪肉摊贩提供的数据显示，去年生猪肉农场价格每公斤8令吉，如今已涨到每公斤14令吉，涨幅高达80%。以一头100公斤的生猪为例，一年前农场价格约80至100令吉左右，目前叫价1400令吉。

生猪肉农场价格节节上升，猪肉贩摊们坦言深感无奈，他们表示，成本的推高，导致巿场上的猪肉价格应声而涨，消费者往往不明就理，把矛头指向猪肉摊贩，令他们有如“哑巴吃黄连，有苦说不出”。

猪肉摊贩、熟食小贩及猪肉食品行业者都沉著应对，绞尽脑汁控制高昂的成本，包括使用其他肉类来减少对猪肉的依赖，以及转而使用冷冻进口猪肉。

辉新鲜猪肉食品贸易东主周福辉（45岁）受访时指出，生猪肉价格从2022年开始，几乎每月都在调高，不曾滑落。

他指出，最大问题出在养猪农场，由于面对饲料100%起价，再加上面对非洲猪瘟的威胁，农场业者纷纷退场，或者把饲养的猪只数量减少一半。

他以本身供应商为例，原本每月饲养5000头猪，近年面对风险，把猪只数量减少至2500头，使巿场上的猪肉货源出现“僧多粥少”的局面。

猪肉价格上涨，猪肉摊贩的生意也深受影响，周福辉透露，其生意额跌了至少25%，家庭主妇纷纷减少购买猪肉，即使购买，也只是买少量，不再向以往般多买些猪肉囤积。

“消费者也转而选择其他肉类，毕竟猪肉每公斤20令吉至30多令吉的价格，已可以媲美海鲜价格。”

他也透露，许多餐馆纷纷转而购买冷冻进口猪肉，相比之下，冷冻进口猪肉的价格涨幅没有这么高。

口福肉骨茶东主刘景成（58岁）受访时指出，猪肉价格大涨，其肉骨茶价格也被迫一年内调整4次，从单座12令吉，调高至16令吉。

他坦言，生意的确受到影响，打工一族已减少光顾。

新张益记云吞面东主张淦棚（53岁）受访时透露，其云吞面售价也因为猪肉价格上涨，从原本一碟5令吉50仙上调至6令吉。

“虽然云吞面的价格涨了，但顾客还是可以接受及理解。”

售卖云吞面30年的他说，有时还会面对猪肉货源不足的问题，供应商曾因货源不足而无法将猪肉送上门。

“若要增加数量，必须提早预订。”

昔加末红屋碳烤肉乾股东郭晓莲（35岁）受访时指出，为了减少对猪肉的依赖，他们今年自创一种“鸡猪合一”的肉乾，取名为“天作之合”。

“猪肉涨价太多了，但我们不想转嫁给消费者，所以自行研发鸡肉及猪肉掺合的肉乾，今年是第一年推出巿场。无可避免之下，今年的肉乾价格还是会涨价10%。”

黄炣卿表示，她会向中央政府及柔州政府反映猪肉价格的问题。

她说，追根究底，养猪农场农场是整个问题的根源，政府应协助猪农解决问题，包括猪瘟、员工、饲料上涨等等，才可以停止猪肉价格不断上涨的趋势。

不到2个月又调涨 生猪价后日起2令吉

（关丹5日讯）不到两个月时间，生猪价又宣告调涨，关丹地区的猪肉价格，将从下周二（8日）起在调涨2令吉!

关丹屠业肉商公会主席陈封荣今日告诉星洲日报，随着农场价格再度调整，关丹地区猪肉每个部位的批发及零售价也随之涨价2令吉。

生猪价涨势惊人！11月8日将再迎来第10度涨价。

“继今年初华人农历新年后，生猪农场价从每100公斤约700令吉一路猛涨，至今达到1500令吉。”

根据了解，生猪农场价是于今年3月冲破每100公斤1000令吉，一路走来已经10度连环涨，幅度直达114%！

上一回生猪价格调涨是于9月中，每100公斤达1400令吉。

陈封荣促农场业者适可而此，不要再随意调涨猪肉价格。

陈封荣说，农场以百物涨价作为调整生猪价格的理由，无论如何，在饲料价保持平稳的时期，农场的理由并不可被接受。

“农场业者一意孤行的调涨，加上政府方面没有管控，导致情况越来越严重，我们希望新政府组成后可以着手干预，解决问题。”

他也说，猪肉商曾于今年其中2次价格调涨时，自行吸纳涨幅，无奈价格一再调整已经令他们吃不消。

“我们预料农场价会于来临冬至期间再涨价，因为华人在过时过节，对猪肉的需求一定会提高。”

Unease among buyers over frozen pork being passed off as fresh

Friday, 04 Nov 2022

PETALING JAYA: Consignments of “close-to-expiry” imported frozen pork is now circulating in the market, causing unease among some consumers.

Even worse is that some unethical sellers may be trying to pass it off as meat coming from freshly slaughtered local pigs.

The Federation of Livestock Farmers’ Associations of Malaysia (FLFAM) said the issue arose following consumers’ complaints that pork they bought recently did not taste quite right after being cooked.

The Penang representative for FLFAM, Wong Fu Sheng, said the association received complaints that some who bought such pork said the cooking smelled odd.

“Some pork traders also told us that they bought pork that did not smell right,” he told The Star.

Although the “soon to expire” frozen pork is safe to eat, Wong said consumers were being misled into thinking they were buying local fresh pork when it could be frozen pork that has been in storage for a long time.

“Some traders shared that they also came across frozen pork that should have been diverted elsewhere but ended up in the Malaysian market because of the prolonged Covid-19 lockdowns in China.

“I wonder if the frozen pork is actually rejected stock,” said Wong, who is also Penang Pig Farmers Association chairman.

To make consumers more informed, he called on the government to implement clearer labelling guidelines for pork, such as providing information about the product’s source country, parts, date of packing and stating whether it was quick-frozen.

“We urge the Veterinary Services Department (DVS) to look into this,” he said.

Malaysia Association of Pork Products Importers & Exporters president Datuk Lai Poh Chon said according to government regulations, the shelf life of frozen meat is two years.

When asked if a Malaysian importer has imported frozen pork from Spain that was originally meant for China, he stressed that frozen pork is not “expired” and is still good for consumption, plus, cheaper prices can benefit local consumers.

“The fact is China had cancelled the frozen pork order, and our supplier asked whether we wanted to take that order – we complied with the conditions of the import permit issued by the government,” he said.

The labels on the boxes of frozen pork from Spain to China remained the same because of the time required to change Customs clearance approval and the additional cost, said Lai.

“If the price of frozen meat can be lower to benefit consumers, why the obsession with changing or not changing the labels?” he added.

Lai said Malaysia allows frozen pork to be imported from Spain, Belgium, Australia, Denmark and Iceland.

Meanwhile, DVS has been contacted by The Star for comments on this issue.

猪肉价格屡创新高　周忠信促政府介入

2022年10月30日 18时09分

（居銮30日讯） 由于通货膨胀造成饲料价格上涨，以及特定地区出现猪瘟，造成我国生猪肉价格屡创新高，明吉摩州议员周忠信呼吁政府介入，并提供猪瘟赔偿和设定价格顶价。

他今日发文告指出，由于生猪肉没有设立价格顶价，养猪农场轮流宣布起价，而批发价格已经从1月初的每100公斤670令吉翻倍涨至目前的1350令吉。

鉴于上述情况，他对养猪业提出3项长期发展建议，包括促请政府开放各州属原有的养猪区执照，以增加国内养猪量，以补足供应来降低价格。

“按照饲养成本提供病猪赔偿，并且提供现代化提升奖掖金，以保障消费者食品安全。”

他说，距离农历新年还有大约两个月半，猪肉是华裔社会主要粮食来源之一，他希望政府介入，及时提供补贴和设定合理的价格顶价，避免影响民生。

Help moderate soaring pork price, govt urged

Monday, 31 Oct 2022

PETALING JAYA: Livestock farmers are urging the government to step in to help moderate the price of pork as this commodity is expected to see another increase next month due to disease outbreaks and higher operation costs.

Pork traders say that current farm prices for live pigs, which is trading at RM13.50 per kg, is expected to go up next month.

According to the Federation of Livestock Farmers’ Associations of Malaysia (FLFAM), the price hike was induced by the spike in operating costs coupled with the outbreak of African swine fever (ASF) in several states.

The surge, described as the “highest increase in history”, was due to the unstable price of animal feed and the swine fever outbreak.

The Penang representative for FLFAM as well as the chairman of the Penang Pig Farmers Association, Wong Fu Sheng, said the price of pig feed, which used to be RM800 per tonne, now costs RM2,000 per tonne.“Raw materials are costly, and operating costs are high too; thus, total costs have gone up by 50% to 60%,” he added.

ASF is destroying pig farms, and there is no vaccine to protect the pigs, with the only control measure currently being culling of infected pigs, and disinfection of the farm.

“It takes six to nine months to clear the farm and repopulate them with (other) animals,” he said.

Malaysia Pork Meat Traders’ Association chairman Chow Poh Yue hoped the government would intervene to prevent pork prices from skyrocketing.

“The government should try to manage soaring pork prices. Everything is going up now, and hawkers are crying foul, while the people are also struggling.”

He claimed that pig farms had been raising prices indiscriminately, and the government should step in, especially since the Chinese New Year is just around the corner (Jan 22, 2023).

According to pork traders, this is the ninth increase this year, and it’s time for the government to intervene.

Chow also questioned why local pork (animals raised in Malaysia) prices are higher than imported ones.

“Why are pork prices in Asian countries increasing? Denmark’s price (for live pigs) are RM400 per 100kg, Thailand is RM1,300 per 100kg, while Malaysia is at RM1,350 per 100kg.”

Chow warned that if local farms keep increasing prices, consumers and businesses will turn to imported frozen pork.

He said consumers who had felt the pinch have been buying less local pork over the last few months.

“We used to slaughter 120 pigs daily, now only 30 pigs. Due to ASF, the market is seeing a shortfall of 30,000 live pigs a month,” he said, adding that if the situation is prolonged, some 3,000 pork retailers may have to close shop.

Pan Malaysia Koo Soo Restaurants and Chefs Association president, Wong Teu Hoon, said pork belly prices increased from RM23.50 per kg in January to RM30 in August, leading restaurant owners to adjust menu prices.

“We can’t keep raising prices as there will come a point where consumers won’t be able to take it. For now, we have to adjust by using cheaper ingredients to manage rising pork prices,” he said.

再创新高连摊贩也想退休 速管制猪肉价涨风

（吉隆坡13日讯） 生猪价格再次飙升，市场零售价格也从今日起调涨1令吉，令零售商与相关领域，包括猪肉摊贩、熟食小贩皆大喊吃不消，屡屡飙涨的价格不仅吓跑客源、收入骤减，加上批发商加盟零售领域分一杯羹，导致原本已受创的生意雪上加霜，甚有猪肉摊贩萌生“提早退休”的念头，促请政府尽快介入并管制持续暴涨的生猪价格。

我国新冠肺炎疫情虽踏入舒缓阶段，而猪肉作为华裔必不可缺的食物之一，正以惊人的速度持续上涨，单是今年就以第9次调涨，如今每公斤的生猪肉零售价，已涨到1至2令吉不等，且“涨潮”恐会持续至明年农历新年，导致猪肉沦为消费者经济负担之一。

为此，《中国报》今日走访半山芭富都综合商业大厦（ICC Pudu），采访的猪肉贩皆告知，从今日起，所有部位的猪肉价格再次调涨1令吉，可谓达到“历史新高”，许多顾客闻言“高价猪肉”即离去，客源骤减令他们倍感失望与气愤，无论是零售猪肉贩、熟食摊贩，乃至消费者，都促请政府插手以遏制“猪肉涨潮”。

“单是今年，生猪价格以涨价9次，就连平时价格较低廉的上肉，也从上星期的每公斤21令吉涨价至22令吉，不知道下次还会起到多少！”

批发商加盟零售抢生意
部分受询的小贩说，自从生猪价格屡屡喊涨后，生意大受牵连，一天光顾的客人不到5人，所幸还有定期交货给熟食业者，才能勉强维持生计。

“其实，每次猪肉涨价后，我们都会缩减货源避免滞销，相比起早年，我们售卖的猪肉已经越来越少，但仍然会有剩货而只能雪藏，若情况持续恶化，我也会考虑撑多几年就提早退休。”

业者告知，如今零售猪肉贩面对最大的困境，是许多批发商都加盟零售领域，举列，10个批发商当中，便有7个开始从事零售业来抢滩，且价格比一般零售猪肉贩更为低廉，竞争力太大令他们“被牵着鼻子走”，纷纷大叹生意难做，越做越灰心。

尽管如此，也有受访的猪肉贩认为，由于猪肉是多数华人食物烹饪上的必需品之一，就算猪肉涨价，也有不少消费者愿意买单并取货，并未察觉猪肉涨价而如常光顾。

熟食摊贩宁吸纳成本

万物高涨令平民百姓不得不勒紧裤头，因此大部分熟食摊贩认为，如今熟食价格已高涨，若将生猪调涨成本全数转嫁给消费者，恐会进一步加重顾客经济负担，因此宁愿自行吸纳上涨成本，直到“忍无可忍”才会考虑调整物价。

部分受访的熟食摊贩告知，向猪肉摊贩取货时，得悉猪肉价格已上涨1令吉，有者虽尚未被告知会涨价，但已做好心理准备，然而，他们并不打算调整物价。

“有别于猪肉摊贩的 ‘贵来贵卖’ 模式，熟食价格不能时隔几个月就涨价，一般都会相隔半年到1年的时间，否则必定会引起顾客强烈反弹，所有我们也不敢贸然涨价，毕竟也明白大家生活艰辛，唯有当作赚少一点，薄利多销。”

他们说，现阶段至今年杪，都不打算调整物价，除非接下来生猪价格维持“每月喊涨”“，且涨幅离谱，才会考虑从明年起再次调整物价。

不涨价少赚些
>庄先生（62岁，猪肉粉摊主）
周二（13日）拿货时，猪肉价格已调涨1至2令吉左右，但我仍会维持原价，毕竟这里熟客多，且如今熟食价格已经高涨，单是一餐都已要价10令吉，一天三餐已用了30令吉，这还没包括家庭和个人的其他开销，我们也是百姓，所以理解客人们的处境，不涨价就当作赚少一点，薄利多销。

涨价必掀反弹
>张太太（43岁，猪肉粉摊主）
生猪涨价，我们肯定受到影响，因为熟食价格的调涨速度，不比猪肉涨价来得块，往往要间隔半年至一年才涨价一次，否则必定会掀起顾客反弹，现阶段我们也不敢贸然涨价，除非猪肉价格几乎每月暴涨，加上其他原材料也同步喊涨，我们才会考虑再跟着起价。

大约两年前，我们购买猪肉的价格约300多令吉，如今同等分量却上涨到500至600令吉，猪肉几乎每个月都起价，但我们并没有，今天拿货时，猪肉摊贩并没告知起价，有可能对方要看情况才调整价格，所以我们早已做好猪肉即将起价的心理准备。

其实有很多顾客，如果猪肉跌价，我们是否会调整熟食价格，单就我们的经验来看，猪肉价格不可能霎时间恢复平日水平，顶多是稍微下降些许，无论如何，我们会视情况而定，同时也希望政府能加入并加强管制，遏制猪肉价格继续高幅度上涨。

不知涨价原因
>李女士（70岁，猪肉贩）
批发商告知，每样猪肉从今日起开始涨价1令吉，所以我们也唯有跟着调整价格，如五花肉从每公斤的38令吉，上涨至39令吉，上肉和后腿肉从21令吉涨价至22令吉，排骨则是28令吉上升至29令吉，令人气愤的是，许多顾客问了价格就离开，令我们非常心痛与气愤，也希望消费者高抬贵手，如果没有兴趣购买，就别问，这只会让我们”越问越伤心”。

其实我们都不知道涨价原因，有关当局理应质问批发商，为何不断涨价，单是今年就涨价了9次，我们都很担心未来继续涨价，所以希望政府能介入，别再让猪肉涨价，苦了人民！

顾客不到5人
>谢先生（60岁，猪肉贩）
自从今年猪肉价格屡屡涨价后，我们客源骤减，很多投诉猪肉太贵，试问一公斤30多令吉的五花肉，要顾客怎么消化？如今，平时一天光顾的顾客人数都不到5人，生意非常惨淡，幸好还有交货给熟食摊贩，否则我们难以生存！

目前我们面对最大的困境是，许多批发商加盟零售领域，令我们面临强大的竞争力，咧如10个批发商中，就有7个批发商做零售来抢滩，而且他们是以低价出售猪肉，导致我们被牵着鼻子走，不断被迫压低售价，市场被垄断，最难生存的就是我们这些零售商！

今年猪肉价格已可说是历史新高，政府不管制也不是办法，我们时刻都要担心下个月猪肉又再起价，我也开始打算撑多几年就提早退休。

顾客没有投诉
>谢兆富（59岁，猪肉贩）
听说猪肉今年不会降价了，但据我观察，就算猪肉涨价，很多顾客还是会选择购买，一些则会买少一点来减低生活开销，其实我们上个星期才被告知猪肉会起价，所以今天也来不及通知顾客，但大部分都没有为此而投诉，而取货的熟食摊则会询问，但都会如常取货，毕竟还是得做生意。

稍涨价仍会买
>陈先生（37岁，上班族）
我平时很少自己煮食，所以不知猪肉价格如何，不过目前市场上得熟食价格都很公道，就算稍微涨价仍会光顾。

少买平衡开销
>徐女士（62岁，家庭主妇）
就算猪肉涨价，还得吃，顶多就买少一点，或者不是天天吃，选择其他肉类或海鲜来取代，借此平衡生活开销，其实我们每年购买得分量都差不多，如果涨价1至2令吉还可以接受，因为不是每天吃，但仍希望猪肉不要继续涨价，如能降价就更好！

年内第九次调升 猪肉每公斤涨RM2

陈封荣：猪肉批发及门市价格每公斤调账2令吉。

（关丹11日讯）生猪肉价格年内第九次调涨，批发及门市猪肉价格将由明日（12日）起，每公斤皆涨价2令吉，为至今最高涨幅。

关丹屠业肉商公会主席陈封荣受访时指出，因农场再度调账生猪价格，因此该会价格小组召开紧急会议后，决定调整批发及门市猪肉价格，每公斤调涨2令吉。

他也指出，市内批发及门市价格不一，不过，猪肉各部分价格每公斤皆会涨价2令吉。

他坦承，生猪价格暴涨，会让商家及消费者皆吃不消。

“我们希望政府相关部门能够插手，与生猪禽畜业者会面合商，了解猪价格暴涨原因，以抑制生猪价格继续飙升。”

饲料跌价 偏减产 盂兰胜会 烧贵猪 每百公斤RM1260卖到上上价

2022年7月29日

（吉隆坡29日讯/独家报导）大马猪肉商总会会长周宝源指出，虽然目前猪饲料价格下降，但由于猪农已减产，生猪价格维持在每100公斤1260令吉，因此消费者在来临盂兰节，仍会买到贵烧猪。

据悉，生猪的这个价格已是有史以来最高。

此外，周宝源说，目前生猪价格已高到不能再涨。且猪农暂时也不敢涨，因市场消化能力很差，而且最近鸡肉价格便宜，很多顾客都已转吃鸡。

他提到，往年盂兰节，烧猪都很畅销，但今年猪肉价格那么贵，相信人民也会少吃，因为估计今年烧猪销量会比去年下跌至少10%。

周宝源接受《中国报》电访时说，猪肉商目前已减少宰猪，并尽量不要囤货，因很多猪肉都卖不出，如果猪肉价格下跌，商家就会面对亏损。

他提到，猪肉商曾与猪农协商，要求后者将生猪顶价设在每100公斤1200令吉，但猪农却硬要再加60令吉。

“其实原料价格已下跌，其中猪饲料中最主要的玉米价格，每公吨都已跌400令吉，但猪肉价格却没跌，因猪农说没有猪。

”所以本会全国会员就会减产（宰），毕竟每样东西都很贵，如果不减产，在市场也卖不出，所以要宰多少就多少，不要囤货。“

此外，周宝源声称理解猪农减产，因早前许多农场爆发非洲猪瘟和原料涨价，所以如今猪农无法在短时间内让猪肉价格恢复便宜。

”目前许多商家都追不上价格，买来价格是1260令吉，但我们却卖不出和卖不到这价格，所以商家们都薄利多销，以保住顾客。“

周宝源希望生猪价格能在盂兰节后下降至少60至100令吉，因猪农每次涨价，涨幅至少100令吉，所以猪农涨多少，就应该跌多少。

”希望生猪价格能在盂兰节后回软，因猪商已宰少很多猪，所以若不降价，就会堆积很多猪。“

他补充，生猪价格在过去十多年来都不曾涨到每100公斤1260令吉，而大马猪肉价格是世界排名第二高的国家，第一则是中国。

”中国有14亿人口，大马只有600万华人人口，但大马猪肉价格就排在第二位。

“我们认为这价钱太离谱了，很多国家猪肉都很便宜，所以一些从外国进口来马的猪肉，间接打击我们的生意，因他们猪肉每公斤在5令吉左右，很便宜。”

Pork sellers cry for help

JOHOR BARU: The price of pork has increased a whopping 10 times so far this year, forcing some sellers to cut their profits to please their customers.

Prices have steadily risen to the current RM1,320 per 100 kg from RM720 per 100 kg earlier this year, said Central Johor Pork Sellers Association chairman Tee Chin Boon.

“The increase is more than 80% and this kind of jump has not happened before.

''According to suppliers, the price hikes are due to the increasing cost of animal feed and workers’ salaries, aside from the African Swine Fever that wiped out thousands of pigs in Negeri Sembilan and Melaka last year.
 

“The most recent price increase was on June 26 and we are not sure when it will go up again next,” he said.

Sales have been affected too, as customers were purchasing the now expensive meat in significantly lesser quantities, Tee added.

“Customers have been grumbling whenever they do their shopping as there was a period where pork prices increased each week.

As traders, we have to explain the reason to them nicely.

“It is quite tough on us; we are also cutting our profits to the very minimum in order to keep our customers happy because it will be worse if they decide to stop coming to our stall.

“We are not pocketing much as it is because when a whole pig comes to us, we can only sell about 60% of the animal where the rest such as head, bones and innards have to be discarded,” he said.

Tee hopes that the government could help find a solution to the matter for the benefit of consumers, like it did with the recent chicken crisis.

Meanwhile, South Johor Pork Sellers Association chairman Chia Soon Hup said the demand for the meat has taken a dip this month, which has led to a slow-down in slaughterhouse activities.

He said the number of animals slaughtered daily has gone down by around 100 heads after the Duan Wu Festival (Dumpling Festival), where pork is among the key ingredients for the rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves, ended in June.

“Though it is normal for the demand for pork to lessen around this time annually, I believe the hefty price tag has turned consumers away.

“Some customers told us they have chosen to consume other meats or meat products, which are cheaper compared to pork,” Chia said.

He added that the market situation is the worst he has seen in his 46 years in the industry.

猪肉6月底或再涨价　预料每公斤涨1令吉

发布于 2022年06月20日 16时41分

（吉隆坡20日讯）生猪价在过去半年来不断涨价，盛传今年6月底猪肉价格将酝酿再次涨价，巴刹商贩预测，新鲜猪肉每公斤料将调涨1令吉！

自华人农历新年以来，本地生猪价格就涨个不停，尤其世界各地爆发非洲猪瘟后，本地猪价就一路调整，价位只涨不跌。

猪肉商贩向记者直言，即便从外国进口猪肉也无法缓和市场猪肉涨价的势头，因为顾客比较信任本地农场。不过，商贩预测可能截至今年8月，猪肉价格就会趋向稳定。

巴生中路巴刹猪肉商梁先生接受《东方日报》访问时证实，猪肉商贩已被通知6月底将再次涨价，这一轮猪肉涨幅是每公斤涨价1令吉。

 

“当下市面上其实并不缺猪肉，而且猪肉的供应量已大于民间需求量。不过，仍不明白为何生猪价依旧涨个不停。”

与此同时，雪隆屠宰业公会理事黄吉良受询时表示，屠宰业公会一直极力反对涨价，而新一轮的调涨价格还在讨论当中。

“养猪场业者在2周前向屠宰业者透露涨价消息，并要求双方召开会议。不过，屠宰业公会是在这一周才召开会议讨论。”

他坦言，生猪价格不断上涨，原因是部分农场爆发猪瘟后导致生猪严重缺乏，加上兽医局严加管控，使得这些农场迄今还没能恢复正常运作。

他补充，我国目前仍有从外国进口猪肉，因此本地市面上虽然不缺猪肉，不过本地顾客包括饮食业者在内，只信赖本地农场出产的新鲜猪肉。

另一方面，雪隆贩商公会投诉主任潘国全表示，从7月开始，不单猪肉价格调涨，就连所有加工食品也都会宣布涨价。

他表示，市面上其实并不缺猪肉供应，然而商贩业者必须用更好的价格才能买到（猪肉），这也是为何新鲜猪肉的价格一直飙涨的原因。

“部分批发市场还能买到新鲜食材，是因为业者与供应商签署了合约。一般上，在超市和批发市场的上的猪肉价格，都会比巴刹便宜。”

他补充，冷冻猪肉的价格一般不会飙涨，不过很多人担心冷冻猪肉会不够新鲜。

猪肉一涨再涨业者吃不消　巴生肉骨茶下月酝酿涨价

（巴生23日讯）饲料短缺加上猪瘟来袭，猪肉从年初起迄今已6度涨价，业者采取薄利多销已难再支撑，巴生肉骨茶下月或将酝酿涨价！

全球小麦短缺起价掀起连锁效应，连带冲击国内的饲料价格，导致养殖业营运成本直线上涨，猪肉价格也于今年1月开始调涨，但当时大部分的肉骨茶业者都不敢贸然涨价。

直至迈入三四月后，不单饲料短缺，多个养猪场也被传爆发非洲猪瘟，迄今不到半年猪肉价格已第6次涨价，由于猪肉涨幅太大，巴生肉骨茶业者在无奈下，最终只好调涨50仙至1令吉不等。

肉骨茶是巴生道地美食，自从猪肉连续涨价至今，综合巴生当下的肉骨茶门市价格而言，目前平均一人份的一碗肉骨茶是12令吉，瓦煲则一个单位14令吉。

但鉴于生猪价格目前每100公斤已涨了50令吉，业者已无法靠薄利多销来支撑，加上猪肉价格可能还会涨不停，因此巴生肉骨茶预料下个月，会微幅调涨。

班达马兰新村著名品牌之一“毛山稿肉骨茶”业者李进得受访时指出，尽管猪肉一直涨价，但业者也会担心，调整价格后会吓跑顾客。

他透露，该店的肉骨茶原本一碗是11令吉，后调涨1令吉。即便猪肉多次涨价但他们也都还是维持12令吉，一直靠薄利多销的方式来支撑下去。

“目前已被告知下个月猪肉还会涨价，由于猪肉价格太高已无法自行吸纳成本，相信大部分业者在下个月，会再度微幅调涨价格。”

他表示，猪肉价格从一个月前开始涨幅不断拉大，当时业者已感受到成本增加的压力。尽管市面上目前仍可买到猪肉，但是数量越来越少而且前景堪忧。

他举例，以往顾客可能要10碗小骨，如今可能只能勉强提供到6、7碗，可明显感受到猪肉部位已严重短缺，不像以往可随意满足食客的需求。
 

会先行观察　才决定是否涨价

另一方面，巴生三美肉骨茶业者黄小姐受询时指出，猪肉供应商已通知说今天（周一）会开始调整价格，预计一公斤猪肉会涨1令吉。

“猪肉年初起就已开始涨价，本店原本之前都是售卖一碗价格11令吉，直到猪肉第5轮涨价时因吃不消，才调涨价格至每碗12令吉。”

她指出，猪肉起价肉骨茶调涨价格实属无奈，然而肉骨茶一直以来都属平民食物，一碗肉骨汤就可以吃得很饱足，所以顾客对此情况能够理解也不计较。

“疫情好转后，在巴生几乎每一家肉骨茶店面都高朋满座，许多熟客包括外地游客都已恢复堂食，在店面一边用餐一边泡茶。”
 

她表示，该店猪肉来自雪州养猪场，因此不受猪瘟影响。不过，价格不断暴涨，其实跟饲料短缺有关，没人能预测什么时候停止涨价。

她补充，目前还未决定肉骨茶是否要调涨价格，毕竟之前已支撑5轮才决定涨价。如今还需先行观察才能决定是否需要调涨价格。

此外，巴生“阿艺肉骨茶”业者章振义受询时指出，尽管猪肉涨价，但供应链原本不受影响，直至爆发猪瘟后，即便支付高价也无法获得更多猪肉货源。

他透露，本身肉骨茶以两种方式出售，一碗售价12令吉，瓦煲则一个单位14令吉。本身不敢胡乱起价，一直都在比较同行价格。

“早在新年期间已有同行调涨价格，一碗肉骨茶卖12令吉。不过，本店是苦苦支撑，直到一个月前猪肉太贵才一碗涨价1令吉。”

他表示，由于巴生店铺租金还可以，多数业者还能够负担吸纳成本价，不过，本身已接到通知，猪肉价格在下个星期将再次涨价。

他补充，目前还在观望，本身不敢贸然调涨售价，会事先参考同行的价格涨幅，再根据市场的趋势来决定下个月应该调涨多少。

In Sabah, pork prices to increase for fifth time this year

Friday, 06 May 2022 9:52 AM MYT

Cheap pork gets the chop as price goes up by RM2 per kg

May 5, 2022 4:57 PM

KUALA LUMPUR: Butchers in the Klang Valley said the price of pork will go up by RM2 per kg due to a hike in costs.

KL Selangor Butchers’ Association chairman Lee Peng Hock said the price of 100kg of pork was currently at RM1,140. However, he did not disclose the retail price as it varies from one butcher to another.

Previously, Lee said, the price of 100kg of pork was RM700 during the Chinese New Year period (Jan 31 to Feb 6), but went up to RM1,060 on Feb 28.

He added that if the price hike continued, no one would be able to afford pork anymore.

“Pork (meat) is a necessity. Some of them (hawkers) have to use pork to cook certain food,” Lee said in a joint press conference with Kepong MP Lim Lip Eng.

Lee said currently the majority of pork supplies in the Klang Valley came from Perak and Penang.

“However, the demand exceeds supply.

“Farms in Negeri Sembilan used to supply meat here, but some of them were shut down due to licensing problems.

“Now, we rely on the Perak and Penang farms for supplies,” he added.

Lee urged the government, specifically the agriculture and food industries ministry and the domestic trade and consumer affairs ministry, to step in and provide a solution to stabilise the price.

“We foresee the price going up again next month during the Dragon Boat Festival. The price tends to increase when there is a festive celebration.

“The price of pork has gone up by more than 60% since January,” he said.

A bak kut teh seller from Kepong, Pong Chee Yoong, who was at the press conference, said as a trader, he had no choice but to increase the price of food.

“Many of my customers have complained about it. We explain to them this is due to an increase in costs (at the farms).

“Since January, I have adjusted the price of my food twice. This year is ‘special’,” he said, adding that he now sells a single portion of bak kut teh at RM17.

Recent increases in pork prices 'unprecedented', say butchers

Thursday, 05 May 2022 - 5:34 PM MYT

KUALA LUMPUR: The price of pork has been skyrocketing in Malaysia and is expected to go up even more soon, says the KL and Selangor Butchers' Association (KLSBA).

KLSBA said the price of pork had increased from RM700 per 100kg in Jan 10 to RM1,140 per 100kg on May 1.

''We have no choice but to increase the price of pork sold to retailers and food outlets as there has been an unprecedented increase in the prices of pork since the beginning of this year,'' KLSBA chairman Lee Peng Hock said at a press conference on Thursday (May 5).

He said KLSBA had been holding monthly negotiations with pig farmers to cap pork prices but to no avail.

''We were told by pig farmers that the cost of imported feed had gone up due to several factors including climate change and the war in Ukraine.

''As such, the price of pork sold to retailers and food outlets increased by RM2 per kg in May.

''Be prepared to see it go up by another RM2 per kg later this month,'' he said.

生猪价6度调账 每公斤RM1240 端午节前料再涨

农场生猪价6度调账，每100公斤价格飙至1240令吉，市场猪肉价格今起每公斤再涨2令吉至2令吉50仙。

槟城屠业公所主席庄怡诚直说，市场猪肉价在来临的端午节前还会涨，消费者需做好准备。

他周一在七条路巴刹小贩中心召开记者会表示，南马之前遭非洲猪瘟袭击，大部分生猪已被销毁。

“目前，以森美兰和马六甲最缺猪肉，相信两州猪贩将来槟城购猪。”

农场生猪自今年1月下开始因入口原料等问题，开始涨价。

他说，槟城农场生猪在供应本地同时，又要兼顾南马市场，许多农场生猪还不足秤，无法推出市场，相信接着便会供不应求。

因此，他说，猪贩只能跟着调整猪肉价，每公斤上涨2令吉至2令吉50仙不等。

他直说，猪肉价涨，已让市场猪肉销路减少20%，但猪贩也只能跟着生猪价调整，避免亏损。

他表示，进口原料如黄豆，玉米和小麦等，因乌俄战争造成短缺而价格高涨，是生猪价不断飙升的原因之一。

“据了解，现在每吨黄豆价格已达约2700令吉了。”

他呼吁消费者和熟食小贩，了解猪肉价格飙涨原因，体谅猪肉贩处境。

出席记者会的包括槟屠业公所副主席庄志强、谢庆闻、执行秘书陈思桦等。

即日起每公斤猪肉涨至RM2.50　槟屠业公所：未来数周或不断涨

（槟城16日讯）槟州屠业公所主席庄怡诚宣布，从即日起，每公斤猪肉涨幅2令吉至2令吉50仙，猪肉价格未来数周或不断调涨！

他今日召开记者会表示，今年生猪价格已调整6次，从原本每100公斤720令吉，调涨至每100公斤1240令吉。

“甚至在短短一周内涨幅100令吉，即从原本上周每100公斤1140令吉，涨至本周1240令吉。”

他想告诉槟城的消费者们，猪肉价格涨幅是逼不得已，因为生猪价格一直在涨，猪肉的价格也被逼调整。

询及生猪价格涨幅的原因，他解释，去年因为南马爆发非洲猪瘟，大量猪只被屠杀，导致该区严重缺乏生猪。

另一方面，他也表示，战争也影响进口原料的价格，导致养猪饲料价格水涨船高。

他补充，养猪饲料的原料包括玉米、小麦及黄豆，这些原料的进口价格都逾千令吉。

询及猪肉价格调涨，是否影响猪贩的生意？他回答，肯定会，受影响的销售额约20%。

“人民看到猪肉涨价，肯定会买少一点。”

5月第二次 猪肉酝酿涨价

（八打灵再也4日讯）猪肉价格今年内调涨近6次，民众被迫吃贵猪！

有消息指出，猪肉将在这个5月内2次涨价，目前已经进行了首次的调涨，至于第二次的价格调账仍在商议中。

据了解，猪肉的农场价每公斤约11令吉，而零售价及批发价，每公斤将会再涨价2令吉。
瓜拉冷岳养猪业协会理主席陈万华被 《大都会》社区报记者询及时指出，基于饲料原料涨价、人手短缺，导致市场上的猪肉开始减少，现在已调账了至少80至100令吉，至于未来价格走势仍难以预料。

雪隆供应稳定
他说，早在这个月头，每100公斤的猪肉已从原本约1000令吉涨至1100令吉。
“其他州属发生的非洲猪瘟情况也是导致一些雪隆猪肉贩购买贵猪的原因。”
他补充，雪隆的猪只尚可应付市场需求，供应还算稳定。

陈万花：疫期冲击 饲料涨价
“被迫涨价止损”
陈万华坦言，受到疫情的冲击，早前已有不少的猪农转行，疫情期间的猪只销量也欠佳，加上饲料原料涨价问题，部分猪农也在当时开始减产，现在也还未恢复最初的模样，重新养猪也需要时间。

他说，猪农因疫情关系已面临亏损长达一年之久，市场好不容易有起色，如却又面对饲料原料暴涨的情况。猪农逼于无奈之下，惟有调涨价格，否则将会面临更巨大的亏损。届时或有农场无法招架而选择倒闭，甚至导致猪肉产量更短缺。

指饲料原料涨价全球问题
“饲料原料价格调账翻了一倍，当中和冠病疫情、全球食料短缺挑战、国际运输费节节攀升、俄乌冲突等原因有关，这个问题不仅是我国面对而已，全球都面对着同样的问题。”

他透露，其实猪肉涨价前，都会和猪肉商贩进行商讨，价格是大家同意后才设下的。

陈万华认为，为了有效解决猪肉不断涨价的情况，尤其猪肉是作为华社常用的食材，政府可以给予津贴，协助猪农、猪肉商贩和消费者，控制猪肉的价格。

陈万华指出，猪肉的价格已在5月头进行调账，至于本月内是否会进行调账，仍是个未知数。
