Pork price breaks through 20 yuan/kg, egg price rises 2 yuan/kg

On the 19th, a reporter in the fresh area of Zhenhua Supermarket in Zhifu District, Yantai, found that Longda's tenderloin meat reached 25.9 yuan per kilogram, with skin-colored meat and No. 1 meat were 24.9 yuan and 22.9 yuan respectively, while the people consumed more lean meat and elbow meat reached 19.9 yuan and 17.9 yuan. An aunt who was buying pork said, "The price of pork is going up all the time, and the price of eggs is going up. What's the matter?" Pork prices have been rising for two months in succession.

Zhenhua Supermarket staff told reporters that pork prices have been on the rise since June, and the current pork price is the highest in nearly two months. Workers selling Black Pork nearby said that the price of black pork was much higher than that of ordinary pork, so the price has not fluctuated much in the past two months. Journalists have noticed that at the early market meat stall in Shixiu District, the price of ordinary pork is about 18 yuan per kilogram, and the price of No. 1 meat and tenderloin meat is more than 20 yuan. The owner of a nearby barbecue shop told reporters: "Pork kebabs are the main barbecue. If the price of pork kebabs keeps rising like this, the price of the kebabs will have to be raised, otherwise it will not make money." Journalists learned from the Municipal Business Bureau that in the second half of the year, the impact of the pig epidemic has gradually emerged, with the passage of time, the overall supply of live pigs is decreasing, and pork prices may also rise.

Egg market should have entered the off-season as usual in previous years, but this year's off-season egg prices are one price a week. Yesterday, the average egg of Zhenhua supermarket was 5.1 yuan per kilogram. Salesmen told reporters that it was 4.7 yuan last week, and this week it was "broken five". In Shixiu store of Sanxiao supermarket, the retail price of eggs is 5.05 yuan per kilogram. Eggs are priced at 5 yuan per kilo at community boutiques.

The owner of a small shop told reporters that the price of eggs had dropped to about 3 yuan in March this year, but it was unexpected that the price of eggs had risen nearly 2 yuan in such a short time. She said wholesalers who send eggs said that because many small chicken farms were closed due to environmental problems and the weather became hotter and hotter, the production of eggs declined, which led to the recent rise in the price of eggs. In addition, the recent sharp rise in pork prices has boosted egg consumption to a certain extent. Journalist learned from a chicken farm in Jugezhuang Town, Mouping District that the stock of laying hens is not high at present, and most of the recent laying hens are chicken larvae supplemented in February. Zhenhua supermarket egg sales staff told reporters that, according to the usual practice, food manufacturers usually start to purchase raw materials more than one month in advance before the Mid-Autumn Festival, which will inevitably affect the demand and price of later eggs. In addition, in September, with the opening of the school, the market demand for eggs will further increase, so the price of eggs will generally be lowered until after the Mid-Autumn Festival.
