The hottest topic recently is the sharp rise of vegetables. Since mid-June 5438+ 10, the price of vegetables has been rising above 6 yuan, and some vegetables have exceeded 10 yuan, which is more expensive than pork.

For example, a netizen in Suzhou complained that spinach still sells 12 yuan a catty, chrysanthemums also sell 10.8 yuan, Chinese cabbage 7.89 yuan/catty, bitter gourd 8.8 yuan/catty, coriander 15 yuan/catty, cucumber 7.3 yuan/catty. Due to the soaring price of vegetables, people can only buy more eggs, pork or fish. After all, the egg market is 5.8 yuan/kg, silver carp is 8 yuan/kg, and pork 13 yuan/kg.

Due to the rising price of vegetables, some hot pot restaurants have been allowed to bring their own vegetables, mainly because the price is too expensive. Hot pot restaurants dare not buy too much and dare not raise prices easily, so they can only do so.

The recent increase in vegetable prices has also caused many consumers to adjust their diet. Everyone likes to eat meat. No wonder many people ridicule "eating braised pork every day".

To say that the vegetables with the biggest increase are undoubtedly spinach, lettuce and green onions. In the eyes of many people, their vegetable prices are high, and vegetable farmers are bound to make a fortune. Is that really the case?

0 1, spinach

At this time last year, the market price of spinach was only around 5 yuan, and the field price was only between 1.5-2 yuan, which was acceptable to consumers and vegetable farmers. But this year is different. In those big cities, the retail price of spinach has reached 15- 18 yuan a kilo, which is higher than the price of pork.

The increase in the retail price of spinach is actually due to the increase in the wholesale price. In Shanghai Central Wholesale Market, the wholesale price of spinach has risen to 10 yuan a catty. As for why it has gone up so high, some people say that the land price has now risen to 6-8 yuan, and the premium spinach is 9- 10 yuan, so the wholesale price will go up so much.

So, vegetable farmers can make a lot of money? However, the vegetable farmers shook their heads and didn't make much money. In September, it was basically rainy in Shandong and Hebei. As a result, spinach grows slowly, and the diseases of plots suffering from rain increase, and rotten roots, rotten leaves and yellow leaves are more common. Compared with previous years, the output of spinach decreased by 60%-70%.

Besides low yield, the quality of spinach is not high, which is also the reason why the price of high-quality spinach is high, mainly because there are too few. For vegetable farmers, this year's purchase price is high, but the output is low, and everyone's income has not increased much. Some vegetable farmers earn only 2000 yuan per mu.

In 2002, green onions increased by 70%.

Due to the skyrocketing green onions last year, vegetable farmers all over the country have followed suit and planted green onions this year, and the output has increased. In May, the price of green onions fell to 2-3 yuan, and the land price also fell to 1 yuan. But this is still not the limit. In July and August, a large number of green onions were listed, and the land price dropped to 1-2 gross, and the market price also dropped to about 8 gross. The market price of green onions was around 500 yuan.

However, since September, the price of onion has started to rise, with the retail price rising to around 2-3 yuan and the origin rising to 5-7 cents. At this price, onion farmers can barely break even.

Unexpectedly, from the middle of 10, onion prices began to rise. From the point of origin, foreign prices have risen to 2.5-3 yuan, up 70% from 1 month ago. Moreover, the retail price of the market has risen to 5-6 yuan Jin, and many people have come again.

Some people are curious, why did the price of onions suddenly rise? In fact, although the planting area of green onions is large this year, losses have occurred in the first half of the year, and the planting scale has decreased in the second half. Coupled with the fear of waterlogging, due to the rain in September, many green onions rotted, and the market volume decreased, leading to price increases.

However, for onion farmers, although the price of onion has gone up now, it is good that everyone can make up for the losses in the first half of the year. If the market continues to be strong, it will be profitable.

03. Lettuce; lettuce

As one of the most common vegetables in autumn, lettuce is never too expensive. Due to the high output, the land price in that year was only 2-3 cents, and the rural market was only about 8 cents, and the city 1.5-2 yuan. Although the price of the place of origin is low, due to the high output and low cost, one acre of land can earn one or two thousand yuan, and everyone is very satisfied.

However, due to the decline in yield, the origin of lettuce has now increased to about 1.5 yuan, which is five times higher than in previous years. But even so, many vegetable vendors complain that they can't get vegetables at all, 1 even 100 Jin after the day.

A vegetable farmer in Henan said that after the rice harvest in previous years, everyone would plant lettuce and cabbage. However, the rain never stopped at the beginning of lettuce and cabbage growth this year, which led to poor growth and serious yield reduction. Therefore, although the land price has risen, it can reduce production more, so it can't make money.

Of course, other vegetables have also experienced this experience, the output is not too considerable, and vegetable farmers naturally can't make much money. As for middlemen, because the oil price has risen this year, the cost has increased by 20%, and the price of the place of origin is high, so the wholesale price has gone up, and there is not much money.

It is even more difficult for vegetable merchants. The price of vegetables is high, and the purchasing demand in the market has dropped, but the wholesale price has gone up, and vegetable merchants have no choice but to follow suit. However, the price of vegetables is high, and the purchase volume is not much, but the loss increases. Some vegetables are not profitable to sell, but in order to meet the needs of all customers, we still have to stock up.

As for when the price of vegetables will drop, some insiders said that the southern autumn vegetables will be listed in June at 5438+065438+ 10, and the price of vegetables will come down at that time, but the overall price may still be high.
