CCTV News:According to the latest data from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the national "vegetable basket" index was 118.56 in October, down 2.64 points from the previous month and 11.96 points from the same period last year. Vegetable prices showed a seasonal decline.
In October, the national average wholesale price of 28 kinds of vegetables monitored by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs was 4.86 yuan per kilogram, down 4.7% from the previous month and basically the same as the same period last year. In terms of varieties, the chain price dropped by 19 kinds and rose by 9 kinds. Among them, spinach, Chinese cabbage and lettuce have a large decline.
Zhang Jing, chief vegetable analyst of the agricultural products market analysis and early warning team of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs:Vegetable prices have entered the seasonal downward channel. The main reasons are that since October, the main producing areas of vegetables have gradually moved southward, the scale of trans-regional transportation of northern vegetables to the south has been reduced, the storage loss in transit has decreased, and the transportation cost has been reduced; Second, the stock of durable goods is sufficient, and the supply mode conversion in summer and autumn is relatively smooth. In October, the national temperature was significantly higher than the same period of last year, which was conducive to the growth of autumn vegetables.
According to the data of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the current vegetable field area in China is more than 100 million mu, an increase of more than 1% year-on-year. The output of vegetables in various places is relatively high, and the supply situation is stable and improving. Experts predict that vegetable prices will keep seasonal downward for some time in the later period, but starting from November, with the fluctuation of temperature, the growth rate of open-field vegetables will slow down, and there is limited room for vegetable prices to fall.
Zhang Jing, chief vegetable analyst of the agricultural products market analysis and early warning team of the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs:The market supply has gradually changed to autumn and winter mode, and the listing volume of protected vegetable production areas in the north has increased. As the production cost of protected vegetables is higher than that of open-field vegetables, it is expected that the downward space of vegetable prices will be limited in the later period.
The overall price of vegetables in Beijing has declined significantly in winter storage vegetables and leafy vegetables.
What is the price of vegetables in the latest market, and which varieties have changed obviously? Let’s go to the wholesale market in Beijing to have a look.
The reporter learned in Beijing Xinfadi Agricultural Products Market that recently, vegetables, potatoes and Chinese cabbage stored in winter have gradually come on the market, with a large sales volume. The market sells 1,500 tons of potatoes, 1,000 tons of Chinese cabbage, and hundreds of tons of carrots, cabbages and white radishes every day.
According to reports, due to the high price of Chinese cabbage last year, the enthusiasm of vegetable farmers was stimulated, and the temperature in the main producing areas was suitable, and the Chinese cabbage was generally harvested, which led to the continuous decline of Chinese cabbage prices in the market. In addition, the prices of fresh and tender leafy vegetables, such as rape, oil wheat and Chinese cabbage, have dropped significantly in recent years, and the prices of celery and cabbage have also dropped to the low point in the same period in recent years.
The data shows that on October 30, the weighted average price of vegetables in Beijing Xinfadi market was 2.46 yuan per kilogram, down 2% compared with last week.
Tong Wei, head of Beijing Xinfadi Market:The origin of vegetables in the later period is mainly in Hebei and Shandong, and the supply is relatively sufficient. In the future, prices will continue to run at a level lower than that of the same period last year.
