Vegetable basket' is lighter! Linyi Vegetable and Seasonal Fruit Prices Falling

The high prices of fruits and vegetables in the hands of the citizens are beginning to become close to the people. On July 1, the reporter visited the city market and supermarkets and found that the prices of various fruits and vegetables have declined, especially melons and fruits, which have dropped to the 2 yuan range. The "vegetable basket" in the hands of the citizens has been lightened a lot.

"Horn honey is only 1.99 yuan a kilo, much cheaper than when it was first on the market." Liu Min, a citizen, likes to eat all kinds of melons. She clearly remembers that the price of goat horn honey on the market is 6.99 yuan per kilogram. At that time, it would cost about 10 yuan to buy a goat horn honey. Now, less than 2 yuan per kilogram of goat horn honey finally allows her to open up to eat.

"In the fruit area, not only the price of melons has decreased, but also the price of peaches and grapes has been cheaper." Sun Fei, head of fruit District of a supermarket in Yimeng Road, said that the retail price of rose-scented grapes was still above 10 yuan in the past period, but now it has dropped to 6.99 yuan per kilogram, and the prices of green-tipped longan and black-tipped grapes have also been reduced to varying degrees. The price of all kinds of peaches has also fallen below 3 yuan, of which nectarines are priced at 2.79 yuan per kilogram, red peaches are priced at 2.59 yuan per kilogram and wool peaches are priced at 2.99 yuan per kilogram. Fruit is cheaper, and daily sales have increased significantly.

"The basket has been lightened at last." Zhang Hong, a citizen, chooses vegetables and laments that after the Spring Festival, the prices of vegetables and fruits have risen all the way. The cost of living in one month is at least three or five hundred higher than that of last year. This is a big expense for the working class. Now the price of vegetables has finally been lowered, and the food that used to be reluctant to eat is now. Finally, we can buy more.

In the agricultural market in front of Linyi Station, vegetable vendor Chen Shanli's stall has become a lot of excitement. Chen Shanli said that high vegetable prices directly affect sales. Watching vegetable prices become cheaper day by day, vegetables also ushered in a sales peak. Vegetable sales in a day exceeded the usual one or two hundred kilograms.

In Huangshan Vegetable Wholesale Market of Linyi City, there are endless vehicles pulling goods in and out. "Now the goods around the province account for two-thirds, and the price is the cheapest time." Mr. Zhang, a wholesaler, told reporters that since mid-to-late June, vegetable production areas throughout the country have gradually increased their supply, and vegetable prices have shown a downward trend. Journalists found that with the increase of temperature, open-air vegetable market period became shorter and prices were much cheaper. Whether it is a farmer's market or a supermarket, the price of vegetables has become very close to the people, and the "basket" in the hands of ordinary people is much lighter.

Jiang Liangyou, a fruit wholesaler, said that during the period of centralized listing of melons and fruits, a steady stream of goods piled up in the market, resulting in oversupply in the market, and prices will naturally go down. Now is the cheapest time of the year. Chen Shanli, a vegetable vendor, said that the lowest price of vegetables in a year was due to the high temperature weather, which shortened the vegetable growth period and shortened the marketing cycle. On the whole, it was beneficial to vegetable growth, especially for local vegetables, which saved the cost of long-distance transportation of vegetables from other places. To some extent, the price of vegetables has been affected.

According to the current situation of production and acquisition of vegetable producing areas in China, from June to July, the listed vegetable varieties may be the largest in the whole year, and the supply also shows a sustained growth trend. Before August, the vegetable prices will also show an overall downward trend.
