Cabbage became a gold and aqua potato price overturned

In the past few days, high-priced apples and potatoes have stirred up people's price-sensitive nerves. Reporters visited wholesale markets, farmers' markets, and large-scale supermarkets and discovered that potato prices have abandoned the “pipal coats”. The retail price is almost equal to 4 yuan a kilogram, and the price has tripled in a year. Apple’s wholesale price has reached around 6 yuan per kilogram. The retail price is higher. Buying a bigger apple costs about 5 yuan. "It's too expensive to afford." People who buy food in the market often scream.

Potato prices upset

Quote: In the Shijiazhuang Qiaoxi Vegetable Market's wholesale market price information, the reporter saw that the wholesale price of potatoes yesterday was the highest in potato quality at 3 yuan/kg, and the lowest at 2 yuan/kg. The wholesale price is 3 yuan per kilogram, and it is not surprising that the retail price is almost equal to 4 yuan. The wholesaler Mr. Zhang told reporters that in the same period last year, the highest wholesale price of potatoes was only 1.4 yuan/kg, and the low was only 1 yuan/kg. The time for one year had more than tripled.

Reflected: Yesterday, Ms. Zhang, who lives in Donggang Road, found that in the vegetable market, potatoes of a few cents a pound in previous years were even 4 yuan a kilogram faster. "I did not expect that the potatoes are also so expensive." Ms. Zhang with emotion.

The reporter visited several vegetable markets such as Tanbei Road, Meiji Street, and Tanggudong Street, and found that the average potato was 3.6 yuan/kg, and the larger one was 4 yuan/kg.

Reason: The person in charge of Northland Supermarket's related procurement said: "On the one hand, the increase in Sinotrans shipments. Due to the rainy water in the South, and the potatoes are relatively suitable for storage of vegetables, many southern buyers have come to purchase potatoes to increase the shipment of potatoes; On the other hand, due to the bad potato prices last year, the potato planting volume has decreased this year, such as the reduction of potato production in Inner Mongolia potatoes by about 10%.In addition, the recent increase in the cost of gasoline and diesel caused by the increase in transportation costs, farmers see the rising prices There are also reluctant to sell psychology, etc., multiple factors have led to the rapid rise in potato prices this winter."

An apple nearly 5 yuan

Quotes: Eating fruit seems to have become a luxury. The reporter learned from the wholesale market of Qiaoxi Vegetable Center that the wholesale price of Fuji apple produced in Shandong has risen to about 6 yuan per kilogram. Buying an apple in the market or in a supermarket, a medium-sized apple almost costs 5 yuan.

Reflected: "How can Apple be so expensive? I can't afford it." Aunt Zhang and her neighbors complained when they bought fruit in the morning market. The reporter visited a number of markets and supermarkets and discovered that Apple really made people feel distressed. The price per catty is about five or six yuan. The reporter saw from the Northland supermarket that the price of promotional apples was mostly between 1.6 yuan and 1.8 yuan, but the price was not high, but most of them were "difficult to look."

It is understood that the apple currently sold in the Shijiazhuang market mainly comes from Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Shicheng around Shijiazhuang, among which Fuji apples in Shandong have the best quality and higher prices. The reporter learned from the Shijiazhuang Qiaoxi Vegetable Center's wholesale market that the current minimum price of Red Fuji apples is 5 yuan/kg, and the highest price is 13 yuan/kg. In the same period of last year, the lowest price was only 3.2 yuan/kg, an increase of up to 56%.

Reasons: According to wholesale market staff, most of the Fuji apples on the Shijiazhuang market came from Shandong. This year, Shandong apples have gained a lot, plus transportation and manpower, etc., and the retail market has naturally risen.

According to reports, the temperature in the country was generally low this spring, and many fruit trees only bloomed without results, resulting in the production of apples in the main producing areas of Shandong, Shanxi and Shaanxi. The cost of transportation has also increased, which has led to an increase of 0.2 yuan per kilogram of apples. In addition, many large fruit sellers are very optimistic about the storage market before and after the Spring Festival, the acquisition volume has doubled, pushing up the price of apples.

Reflects: “This early autumn Chinese cabbage is so expensive?” Aunt Wang, who buys food at the provincial coal market, told reporters that dumplings at home are ready to buy cabbage, which costs 1.2 yuan per kilogram. Aunt Wang was very puzzled. This year's Chinese cabbage, which costs 0.4 yuan per kilogram, became a “golden and noble food” this year.

Quote: The data provided by Shijiazhuang Qiaoxi Vegetable Center Wholesale Market shows that the average price of Chinese cabbage wholesale is between 0.7-0.8 yuan per kilogram. In the same period of last year, the wholesale price of Chinese cabbage was 0.10-0.12 yuan per kilogram.

This reporter learned that not only Shijiazhuang, Baoding Dingzhou cabbage planting area of ​​10,000 acres of early-maturing Chinese cabbage, the merchant purchase price reached 0.4 yuan / kg, the retail price of the farmers' market reached 1.2 yuan / kg , much higher than the highest price of 0.24 yuan/kg in the same period of last year.

Reasons: It is understood that due to the lower prices of Chinese cabbage last year, the enthusiasm of farmers in planting Chinese cabbage has been hit to some extent. According to preliminary statistics, the planting area of ​​Chinese cabbage in the province has been reduced by 780,000 mu this year compared to last year. The reduction in planting area has led to a significant reduction in the supply of listed products. In addition, due to the increase in the price of agricultural materials this year, the cost of production inputs such as agricultural film, seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides continues to increase; the rise in oil prices and the tolls of bridges have caused long-distance transportation costs to increase. These have also become an important factor in the rise of Chinese cabbage prices.
