The people who are preparing for the forthcoming new year's holiday meal are blessed. Since mid-december, journalists have visited the fresh market to learn that, as “explosives” in domestic small seafood, the river abalone market has seen a blow-out of wells, with smaller abalone specifications at less than $3 a minimum, which has reached a new low of nearly a decade. It also allows the wuhan market to use the abalone as a real home dish to “cook up” the festival。
In practice, industry reported that market prices for small seafood, represented by abalone, have remained steady and declining in recent years. This trend is due both to the continuing increase in supply at the end of production and to the tendency of consumer markets to focus more on value for money。
On new year's day, less than three bucks for an abalone
On the morning of 28 december, the market for food in zai's farm, located in the hanguchi river road, was full of people busy buying fresh food for their families. Among them, journalists found in seafood slots in the aquaculture area that several citizens were fighting to buy small abalone。
"the cheapest one for the abalone today, the cheaper one, the cheaper one for the abalone, the more expensive one for the 13, is a good deal." seafood vendors enthusiastically recommend to their customers: “if you buy it back, 15 heads of abalone will have the highest value; if you buy food, 12 to 8 heads of abalone will be good.”
According to the vendor, the abalone they are selling is mainly from liaoning, which is of relatively higher quality, but the lowest price is only $5: “the price has been down since the beginning of the month, and it's really cheap and closed.”
The chain of fresh abalone appears to be more expensive than the lowest five-dollar small abalone in the market. In the seafood area of wuchang's family shop, many citizens are choosing the products of their hearts. Of these, abalone is clearly an important object for everyone to buy, and almost everyone will ask for prices, while the lowest home price of $7. 9 is also contributing to a high level of trade。
However, journalists also found cheaper little abalones for sale. The original price of the 15-headed abalone at the north hampshire was as low as $3. 8. For the new year's holiday, which began on 30 december, five 15-headed abalones cost $13. 8, counting less than three。
Supply concentration and consumer focus on value for money
“the abalone is cheap now, and you buy it and burn it, and maybe buy a bowl of abalone for less than some fresh water fish.” red six, the owner of the hanguchi manchun street market, who has made an impression on water for more than 20 years, told reporters that the price of abalone this winter is generally cheaper than in previous years, with a maximum of $2 to $3: “it's basically home-grown seafood, and i've been selling it all four seasons. It's the season of abalone production, with a larger supply and a slight drop in prices.”
Following visits, journalists learned that abalone in the current winter seafood market came mainly from several coastal cities in shandong province, as well as liaoning dalian, and in part from the fujian coastal area, where high daily catches were recorded. As a result of this concentration of supply, prices in the end markets are beginning to decline。
In recent days, miyagi haiwang, the head of the north hampshire fishermen's pier in hanguchi, has been busy with seafood promotion on new year's holiday. "a 15-headed abalone is less than $3." according to him, the seafood market was now in a concentrated supply phase and some seafood prices were more pro-people. In particular, regular varieties offer low prices to feed consumers: “citizens are increasingly focused on the value of seafood, and we are in a position to move at a `port price', so that the price advantage becomes more obvious.”
It's always good, and seafood consumption is becoming common
After new year's eve, the annual purchase slot before the spring festival will be introduced, and how long will the current domestic price of domestic seafood products, represented by abalone, last
In response, thong hongxi's experience of selling seafood over many years has shown that the price of abalone this year is cheaper than it has been in the past years, mainly because of increasing coastal farming. In the current increasingly abundant supply, abalone consumption is becoming more common and prices are not likely to rebound significantly。
In response, miyagi hawan also argued that, in recent years, consumer habits in the final market have tended to favour seafood products that are “high-priced” and in which abalone is the representative of which prices may rebound in later periods owing to seasonal, commandive, etc., but remain generally pro-people。
Agricultural experts described the increasing supply cycle and volume of the market as abalone farming in coastal areas was increasing. With relatively stable demand, abalone prices may also show a steady downward trend. Consumers can always eat more pro-people abalone products. (indistinct news)
