Recently, many netizens have complained that local vegetables have risen too sharply, resulting in vegetables being more expensive than meat. According to the investigation of the vegetable market in a certain area, the price of vegetables has risen several times directly, and cauliflower, eggplant, beans and celery have all increased greatly, with the increase rate reaching 16% than before. Nowadays, vegetables are more expensive than meat, which has become a hot topic, but why spinach is so expensive is the most concerned issue for the people. Now all the spinach in the supermarket has been sold to 12 yuan. Some netizens said that in some vegetable markets in Shenzhen, spinach has been sold to 20 yuan for a catty, while pork has been declining, even dropping to 8 yuan for a catty. Although it has been raised since then, it is not more than 10 yuan a catty. Before that, we usually described something as "cabbage price" when it was cheap, and it is still "vegetable" now, and "price" is not this "price". This can't help but make netizens shout: buy some meat to eat! Then why is the price of vegetables still rising? What is the reason? Bian Xiao analyzed several reasons here. 1. The supply of vegetables is slow. Due to the continuous rain in most parts of China this year, the main vegetable producing areas in northern China, such as Henan, Shandong and Hebei, were hit by heavy rain and suffered floods in many places. The continuous flooding of vegetable fields has caused damage to vegetables and decreased production in many places. In addition, since the autumn, cold air has hit, and hail disasters have occurred in some areas, leaving vegetables devastated and leaves smashed. Therefore, the yield is reduced, the picking is inconvenient and the transportation cost is also increased. Second, the weather affects vegetables and food. Most vegetables are fresh and good, and the price fluctuation is also customized according to the weather. The production and sowing of vegetables are greatly influenced by seasonal factors and weather. After the cold weather in the north, the supply of vegetables is relatively tight, and most of them are planted in greenhouses. Fresh vegetables such as cucumbers, beans and tomatoes are in short supply, so prices will rise accordingly. In particular, there are so few spinach in greenhouse listed now, which leads to the high price of spinach now. Third, the epidemic affected the increase in vegetable prices, which was also caused by the epidemic. In order to prevent the spread of the epidemic, the country implemented a comprehensive blockade to control the epidemic. Generally speaking, for the farmers' market in the north, most of them rely on the supply of vegetables shipped from the south. However, due to epidemic control, transportation roads were blocked, transportation costs increased, and insufficient supply led to a sharp increase in vegetable prices. In order to keep the freshness of vegetables, it can only increase the transportation cost of vegetables, so it is not surprising that vegetables are so expensive now. Why do vegetables increase in price, and vegetable farmers say they can't make money? Some netizens reported that although the price of vegetables is soaring now, most vegetable farmers still report that they have not made any money. Why? According to the related reporter's report, most of the vegetables with rising prices are mainly in greenhouses, and there are not many vegetables in the season. Most of these farmers grow vegetables in the fields, and this year is a disaster-ridden year. According to the practice of previous years, it should be planted for 30 to 50 days in mid-August, and then harvested in September,1October. However, the vegetables just planted this year were flooded, resulting in no output and no supply to the vegetable market, so we had to go to the south to purchase. But as we all know, this year's vegetable market, which was bought for one or two yuan in previous years, has quadrupled now, so we can't rob it later. Coupled with the soaring vegetable prices, ordinary people have begun to choose not to eat such expensive vegetables. Now, what tastes cheap? In previous years, a cart of spinach was sold out in one day, but now it takes two or three days to sell out. This also shows that people now know that the price of spinach has risen a lot, so many people will choose a slightly cheaper vegetable to eat after hesitation. According to the current vegetable farmers, there are no spinach in many vegetable fields now, and now you can earn some money with the spinach that survived before, and this money is also a meal reward given by God. Now many vegetable farmers in Northeast China take this opportunity to raise prices crazily. If it weren't for the natural disaster that happened here this year, would these vegetable vendors go all the way to the northeast to buy food? Nowadays, vegetable farmers rely on the weather for food, but because of uncontrollable factors like the weather, no one can say what will happen in the future. A professor from the Agricultural College of Henan University also made relevant remarks, saying that our vegetable farmers in Henan lost money this year because of the weather, while those in Northeast China made money because of the weather. So no one can guarantee that the price of vegetables will continue to rise or fall in the future. We can only see whether the coordination of regional management departments can maintain the normal transportation of agricultural products and reasonably control the price of vegetables in the future vegetable market. I believe that one day we can eat vegetables with normal prices.
