The price of star anise may fluctuate in recent years, but generally speaking, the market price trend of star anise is rising. This is mainly because the planting and picking of Illicium verum are affected by weather, climate and other factors, and the output is unstable, while the market demand for Illicium verum continues to increase, especially during holidays, Illicium verum is often in short supply, which leads to the price increase.

Specifically, in 2022, the price of star anise may remain at around one catty in 25 yuan, and there will be no big increase. However, as the supply of star anise is difficult to meet the market demand in the short term, it is expected that the price of star anise will still rise in the next few years.

It should be noted that this is only a forecast based on the current market conditions and trends, and the actual market conditions may change due to various factors (such as weather changes and policy adjustments). Therefore, it is necessary for merchants or consumers to pay close attention to market dynamics and changes.
