According to Xiaobian, the price of crayfish is different in various markets and places of origin. The cheap one is about 150 yuan, and the expensive one is about 500 yuan. Australian lobster in Beijing Dayang Road Agricultural Products Wholesale Market is 580 yuan/kg. Therefore, the market price of lobster is determined by the market place and the quality of lobster. The wholesale market price is about one catty from 200 yuan to 400 yuan, and the hotel sales price is about RMB 2 ~1000.

The value of lobster culture: why is the price of lobster high? There are three main reasons for the lobster:

1, according to the composition of protein, the protein content of lobster is 18.9%, which is higher than that of most freshwater and seawater fishes and shrimps. Its amino acid composition is superior to that of meat, and it contains eight essential amino acids which are necessary for human body but cannot be synthesized or insufficient in vivo, including not only isoleucine, tryptophan, lysine, phenylalanine, valine and threonine, but also arginine with little content in vertebrates.

2. The fat content of lobster is only 0.2%, which is not only much lower than that of livestock and poultry meat, but also much lower than that of green shrimp and prawn. Moreover, its fat is mostly composed of unsaturated fatty acids necessary for human body, which is easy to be digested and absorbed by human body and has the function of preventing cholesterol from accumulating in the body.

3. Lobster, like other aquatic products, contains mineral components necessary for human body, among which calcium, sodium, potassium, magnesium and phosphorus are more abundant, and iron, sulfur and copper are more important. The total mineral content in lobster is about 1.6%, in which the contents of calcium, phosphorus, sodium and iron are higher than those of common livestock and poultry meat and shrimp. Therefore, regular consumption of lobster meat can maintain the excitement of nerves and muscles.
