For farmers, the happiest thing is that the agricultural products they grow can have a good price, good yield, and ultimately create a good income for themselves and realize the dream of employment at the doorstep. But the reality is often counterproductive, and the price of various fruits and vegetables will always be too high, sometimes due to insufficient supply, and sometimes it is the reason for artificial speculation. Recently, apples have made waves again, and now the place of origin has just hung fruit, but suddenly encountered frost, inventory smells the wind, and vendors have begun to manipulate price increases.
In the past, it was often said that autumn was the season of harvest, fruitful, and a scene of harvest. In fact, if you think about it, there are indeed many common fruits that ripen in the autumn, and common pears, grapes, apples, etc., are typical examples. It is only May, and it is the stage of fruit hanging of these fruits, especially apples, and many places have entered the fruiting period. However, in recent days, the temperature is somewhat capricious, the cooling is very obvious, Shandong Yantai, Shaanxi and other places are the main production areas of domestic apples, and these production areas have been suddenly frosted in recent days, affecting the hanging fruit.
The apple has just flowered, encountered frost, all beaten, whether the fruit can be hung in the later stage, it remains to be seen, but it is certain that the amount of fruit hanging will be affected. Farmers are really not easy, this year the cost of fertilizer and other agricultural materials are rising in price, and now the low temperature frost has a great impact on the yield and quality of apples this year, causing losses to farmers.
Apple trees in many domestic production areas have suffered frost, affecting the hanging fruit, which in turn may affect this year's production. This matter made the vendors shine, the inventory smelled the wind, ready to speculate on a wave of market. Last year's apple quality is average, good fruit is relatively small, inventory is much lower than in previous years, after more than half a year of consumption, now there is not much left, the price is very firm. Now the inventory of apples is small, and the market retail demand is strong, the recent price is even higher, and even a certain rise, and now after this frost, these inventory apples have increased prices again.
In the eyes of the vendors, now is a rare good market, this year's output is bound to be affected, and now the inventory of apples in their hands, is simply fragrant, take this opportunity, apple shipment prices rose again. At present, the warehouse price is 4 yuan a catty, and more than 75# pieces of red have a warehouse price of 4-4.5 yuan. In fact, the current inventory of apples is very small, because a month ago there was already a wave of price increases, and many vendors and growers were actively shipping at that time.
Last year's apple quality was average, and the first and second grade fruits in the early stage were relatively fast, but the market retail end, the market was general. Since then, Apple's market has been depressed for a while, but soon ushered in a reversal, and the price has continued to rise a month ago, and the tertiary fruit that was not sold well in previous years has become very sought-after. Now apple inventory is lower than the same period in previous years is no secret, coupled with the frost in the place of origin, this year's production reduction is very likely, once again pushing up the apple market.
Apple's outbound price rose by 4 yuan, the market retail price will reach a new high, many netizens expressed their sighs, don't want to eat apples again. Now the apples on the market have sold for 6 or 7 yuan, with the price of this warehouse rise again, the retail price will increase again, if it rises to 8 or 9 yuan, it will be even more unaffordable. Although the apple is good, but the price is too expensive, it is reluctant to buy, reluctant to eat. And just now into the summer, a variety of seasonal fruits on the market, lychee, watermelon, mango, peach, bayberry, etc., in the market with their own heat, very popular with foodies. Nowadays, the price of these fruits has dropped significantly, and the price will be lower when more large quantities are listed in the later stage, which is good news for many foodies.
There are more varieties of fruits on the market now, which also gives consumers more choices and intensifies competition. Although apples are popular fruits, they are too expensive and the number of people buying them will be significantly reduced. And there are so many seasonal fruits as a substitute choice, consumers will not be less mouth-to-mouth.
