On June 28, 2021, China's shrimp price index closed at 85.8 points, down 0.1 points from 10 days ago.

According to the analysts of the Shrimp Industry Research Office of the Agricultural Treasure Book, at present, the Pearl River Delta, Hainan, Fujian and other places have basically finished making shrimp early, and the market supply and demand are basically balanced; Jiangsu Rudong, Jiangmen Taishan and other places are in the peak period of shrimp production, and the price of shrimp has declined, among which the price of large-sized shrimp in Rudong has declined significantly, and the price of 30 shrimp / kg has fallen from 22.5 yuan / kg to 21 yuan / kg; 40 sticks / kg of Jiangmen Taishan only sells 17-18 yuan / kg.
July is coming, South China is about to start the second round of seedlings, only a small number of shrimp in various places on the market, and consumption recovery, shrimp demand has a certain pulling effect; it is understood that after 3 consecutive days of bad market, on June 28, Guangzhou Huangsha Aquatic Products Trading Market resumed the booming market, until the closing period of the day; it is foreseeable that the price of shrimp in the Pearl River Delta Tangtou will be increased in the coming week.
East China production area is currently in the peak season of shrimp production, due to the disaster in many small sheds in Jiangsu in May, resulting in a significant reduction in the current amount of commercial shrimp in the pond, but also disrupted the peak period of shrimp production in previous years, so before the concentrated listing of shrimp in the outer pond, the shrimp market as a whole is optimistic.
At present, the North China production area has begun to produce shrimp one after another, and the price of 40 ponds / kg of the outer pond is 17 yuan / kg, which is already running at a low price, and the price reduction space is not large.

Zhuhai: At present, the shrimp specifications are mostly 50-70 sticks / jin, most of them are stored pond shrimp can not withstand the onset of the disease before going out of the pond, 50 sticks / kg specifications of the pond head price of 15 yuan / jin, 55 sticks / kg specifications of 13.5 yuan / kg, 68 sticks / kg of size 12.5 yuan / kg. It is reported that at present, most of the shrimp ponds in Zhuhai are in the empty pond or just seedling stage, and the shrimp in the pond are mostly small shrimp below 50 sticks /kg. According to feedback, the problem of white stool in shrimp in the early stage of this year is more serious, and many shrimp ponds face this problem as soon as the shrimp is cleared. Old problems in previous years also exist, such as enteritis slow material caused by bacterial infection, carapace ulcer, etc., nitrite poisoning leads to a large number of soft shell dead shrimp, etc.; with the advent of high temperatures, the possibility of large-scale outbreaks of diseases is not ruled out.
Taishan, Jiangmen: At present, the pearl river delta has the largest shrimp production area. Taishan's existing pond shrimp to 30 / kg specifications, is at the peak of the prawn market, the price is low, good quality 30 sticks / kg specifications of the tang head price is only 22 yuan / kg, 40 sticks / kg specifications are basically 17-18 yuan / kg. Due to the overall unsatisfactory price of shrimp and the slowdown of disease, many farmers want to delay the production of shrimp. It is reported that the incidence of local shrimp ponds in the early stage of breeding this year remains high, but the overall output that has survived is OK, and the output of basic ponds (8-10 acres) has reached about 3,000 jin.
Zhanjiang: Early shrimp farming has entered the closing stage, the high pond is basically over, the earth pond is gradually finishing, and the overall success rate is not ideal. At present, 40 pieces / kg of raw shrimp sell for 18.5 yuan / kg, and the ice is 2 yuan / kg lower. Zhanjiang slope head shrimp has exceeded 70%, the overall production of this batch of shrimp is not high. The south three islands have been out of 90%, this year's overall drainage rate is high, the shrimp size is concentrated in 80-200 sticks / kg, basically no prawns out. The situation in Wuchuan area is also similar, more than 80% of the white shrimp has been out, there are still a small number of 18 large shrimp / kg or so, shrimp quoted 35 yuan / kg.
Fujian: At present, the high pond is dominated by penaeus monodon, and there are few white shrimp left. Longhai, Zhangpu, Nanjing and other places of earth ponds have also entered the final stage, about 20% of the pond prawns. The price of 40 tutangs in Longhai area is 17-18 yuan / jin, and the price of Nanjing and Zhangpu is about 1 yuan / jin. Next, it also entered the seedling stage, but there are also many successful farmers who have voluntarily abandoned shrimp farming for many years, so that people and ponds have sufficient time to rest.
— East China Production Area —
At present, Jiangsu Rudong, Yancheng, Lianyungang and other places of small sheds are in the peak period of shrimp production, shrimp prices are relatively stable, such as the east 40 sticks / kg size tangtou price of about 19 yuan / kg, compared with the same period last year only 16.5 yuan / kg, this year's price is 2.5 yuan / kg higher. At present, other production areas are not much different from the same period last year, while the price of shrimp in Rudong is significantly higher than last year, which is mainly related to the large-scale disaster of shrimp ponds in many places in Jiangsu in early May and the small amount of commercial shrimp in the current ponds. The market demand is positive, the supply of shrimp is small, and the high price of shrimp will continue for a period of time.
— North China Production Area —
At present, the price of 40 shrimp/kg in Binzhou, Shandong Ishi, is 17 yuan /kg, and the overall shrimp price is relatively stable. Only a few sporadic shrimps appear in the high-level pools of Weifang, Haiyang and other places in Shandong, which have basically ended.
