Autumn is a good season to eat vegetables. In autumn and winter, there are fewer and fewer varieties of vegetables, and most of them can only be planted in greenhouses. Therefore, when vegetables are in the peak season in summer, the price of vegetables is generally stable. When the weather turns cold in winter, the price of vegetables will suddenly soar. In many small cities with land, the price of vegetables has always been stable and orderly, and there will be no sudden price increase or mutation. However, in developed cities, vegetable prices change three times a day. In addition, recent continuous rainfall in the south has led to a decrease in output and an increase in transportation costs, which has led to a continuous surge in vegetable prices in Zhejiang and Shanghai, and even the situation of spinach per catty 15 yuan. Many people who buy vegetables say that the price of vegetables has caught up with the price of meat. Under normal circumstances, the state strictly controls the prices of grain, oil and meat, and it is difficult to have big ups and downs. For vegetables, eggs and fruits, these price controls are not very strict. Because the storage of these foods is small, they cannot be stored in large quantities, which is not conducive to market supervision. In addition, the rise and fall of prices are generally caused by seasonal factors, so they will recover themselves every once in a while without regulation.

First, the price increase is only temporary, and it will return to stability every once in a while.

Autumn has come, and many vegetables can only be planted in greenhouses, so the production time of vegetables planted in greenhouses is relatively unstable and inconsistent, which leads to many vegetables in short supply hoarding for a period of time. Due to various additional factors such as transportation weather, the price is high at a certain time, but the price increase is only temporary. When the unified batch production time of greenhouse vegetables comes, the price will return to a stable state.

Second, a kilo of spinach 15 yuan is just an example and cannot be copied. Similar situations have occurred in many cities.

On the one hand, the skyrocketing spinach has a great relationship with the production and planting season of spinach, on the other hand, it has a great influence on the weather. In recent years, abundant rainfall has led to relatively low yield of many spinach plants, easy to rot, and increased picking and transportation costs, so the price of spinach remains high. Spinach is just one example of rising vegetable prices. Many vegetables have corresponding price increases, but according to the different production and supply, the price increase has not changed much.

As can be seen from the above aspects, the price of spinach is more expensive than meat. This phenomenon is just an example, and the price will soon return to a stable level, instead of staying high for a long time like the price increase of meat.
