In the first half of the year, the crayfish market was not very good. Situations of unmarketable crayfish are widespread across the country. Shrimp farmers who raise crayfish complained about the bad market conditions one after another, and most of them also suffered huge losses. The reason is that the price of lobster seedlings is too high this year, but the price of adult shrimp in the market is extremely low. Even the price of cabbage is around 9 yuan per catty. When the hairy crabs are on the market in the second half of the year, the market is also sluggish because Yangcheng Lake cannot catch up with the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival and has to wait until the National Day holiday when a large number of crabs are on the market. It's November now and sales are getting worse.
Recently, a reporter visited the Yantai market in Shandong. At the seafood market, he found that the accumulation of crabs was still very serious, and many stalls were not selling any crabs. The crabs are wild and cost 10 yuan. However, due to its small size, many people are reluctant to buy and eat it. After all, the crab itself doesn't have much meat, so removing the shell may result in only soup. The price of shrimp is not too expensive either. Last year, its price was sold at 50 yuan per catty, but this year it has dropped by half. You can buy it for 25 yuan. They are large, meaty and taste fresh and delicious. They are much cheaper than crayfish. The reporter also visited the Tianjin Farmers’ Market and many supermarkets such as China Resources Vanguard, Carrefour, and Renrenle. He found that despite the cooler weather, seafood stalls still attracted many customers, and sales of crabs, yellow croakers, shrimps and other seafood products continued unabated.
A staff member in the fresh food sales area of ??the supermarket said, "Although there are fewer sea crabs, there are more river crabs. Now is the fattest season for river crabs, and river crabs have been selling well recently." According to Understand that river crabs come in different sizes, and the price ranges from 25 yuan to 45 yuan per 500 grams. Mr. Li, a citizen who buys crabs, said that crabs are now much cheaper than before. This is his second recent purchase. In addition, there are some small live sea crabs priced around 8 yuan, and citizens often buy them to take home for cooking.
Pippi shrimp sells very well. Both baskets were sold out in one morning. " said a seafood vendor at the Mianyang Road Community Farmers Market. He told reporters that the current Pippi shrimps mainly come from the Bohai Bay, and the prices are mostly 100 yuan for 3 jins and 100 yuan for 4 jins. In some supermarkets, yellow croaker and hairtail are at special prices. It is also favored by the public, and the price per 500 grams is more attractive from 15 yuan to 20 yuan.
