Why is the price of fruit more expensive this year than in previous years?

The price of fruit this year is higher than last year. I personally think the most important reason is the weather. Last year, most parts of China were affected by extremely cold weather, which led to a significant reduction in fruit production in fruit producing areas. Now some fresh fruits are not mature enough to go on the market. What is sold in the market is last year's stock. The quantity is small but the market demand is large, and the fruits stored for a winter will be exhausted. Prices will naturally go up.

Due to the influence of rain, fruits in some fruit producing areas in southern China rot and deteriorate after rain, resulting in a decline in fruit output. With the rising cost of manual logistics, it will be indirectly transferred to the price of fruit, which will increase the cost of fruit. Due to the unsalable fruit products in many places in recent years, the enthusiasm of fruit farmers to grow fruits has decreased, the fruit planting area has decreased, and the original fruit output has shrunk dramatically.

In recent years, with the continuous rise of people-oriented costs, transportation costs are also rising. As a kind of daily consumer goods, fruit has higher requirements for transportation than other products in order to meet the requirements of freshness, so the increase in transportation requirements is indirectly passed on to the price of fruit. And now when you go to buy fruit, you will find that the fruit stalls that used to be sold in stalls are gone and replaced by some fruit supermarkets. In the fruit supermarket, some fruits spare no effort to improve their appearance in packaging, and the cost in the middle has increased a lot.

With the passage of time, seasonal fruits in various fruit producing areas will be listed one after another this year, and the number of fruits will also increase. I believe that the situation of expensive fruit will also improve in the near future.
