What is the reason for the skyrocketing price of 202 1 vegetables?

First, the disastrous weather led to a decrease in housing.

Since September, the northern region has suffered from autumn floods and floods that have not happened for many years, even unprecedented. On the one hand, the farmland is too humid, and some fields have accumulated water, resulting in more than 2 million mu of vegetables being affected; On the other hand, continuous low temperature and insufficient sunshine lead to the decrease of photosynthesis, which hinders the growth and development of vegetables, and even drops flowers and fruits.

Second, the rising prices of agricultural products have increased production costs.

Since the beginning of this year, the prices of agricultural materials such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides have continued to rise, which has increased the production cost of vegetables.

Third, the cost of transportation and circulation has increased significantly.

The "vegetable basket" product is "buy and sell the whole country". Due to the disaster of vegetables in the north, the stubble connection is not smooth, and some varieties are transported across regions, and the transportation distance is lengthened. In addition, the increase in gasoline and diesel prices has led to a significant increase in transportation costs.

Fourth, other factors.

The shortage of electricity supply in some vegetable-producing provinces in the north has also affected the intensive seedling raising and industrial production of vegetables. In addition, sporadic outbreaks of COVID-19 in some areas have also increased the difficulty of production and marketing convergence.

Recently, the price of vegetables has dropped.

It's mid-June 5438 +2020 10, and the Spring Festival is getting closer and closer. Consumer enthusiasm in the market began to improve, and the price of rice flour oil increased by about 2-5 yuan compared with the previous period. Even the prices of beef, mutton and fish have gone up, and many people feel that consumption is not free.

In fact, the price of vegetables is much cheaper than some time ago and lower than last year. For example, in a vegetable market in Zibo, potatoes only cost 1.5 yuan/kg, and the price difference is 1 yuan. Radish 1.4 yuan/kg, zucchini 1.8 yuan/kg, Chinese cabbage 1.3 yuan/kg, celery 1.6 yuan/kg, carrot and 2 yuan/kg.

Compared with the fourth quarter of last year, the prices of these common vegetables are about 2-3 yuan cheaper, but those out-of-season vegetables are on the high side, such as tomato 5.6 yuan/kg, cucumber 4.5 yuan/kg, shepherd's purse 8 yuan/kg, lotus root 4.9 yuan/kg and Toona sinensis bud 20 yuan/kg.

The low price of conventional vegetables is actually because the market supply is too large, and the yield of vegetables in greenhouses in the north is high. The vegetables in the south are shipped to the north one after another, which leads to the failure of vegetables in the north. Even when the year is approaching, consumers are more willing to spend money.
