The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs’ Livestock and Veterinary Bureau held a 2026 livestock production situation meeting in Rongchang District, Chongqing on Oct. 29–30. The ministry said it will establish routine data‑verification mechanisms, strengthen multi‑department situation consultations and cross‑source data comparison and analysis. Using livestock/veterinary production‑operation entity codes as the linkage, it will progressively integrate full industry‑chain business‑flow data and promote cross‑departmental and cross‑level data interoperability. The ministry will guide farms to set scientific production plans, enforce data‑reporting obligations and implement requirements for normalized, precise regulation of hog production capacity. It also issued clear requirements to strengthen livestock production disaster prevention, mitigation and relief capabilities in response to an exceptionally strong El Niño.
