Vegetable prices have stopped and fallen, prices for pigs and goats have risen and markets have generally been smooth。
In the past week, of the 12 main categories of necessities of life monitored by the chamber of commerce, eggs, water products, cooking oil, fruit, meat, salt, food price ring increases, vegetable, poultry, sugar and dairy prices are declining and drinking water prices are flat。
The price of after-supplied food has fallen
Local early winter vegetables have gradually been marketed, market supplies have increased, prices for the acquisition of produce have fallen, along with the implementation of guaranteed price stabilization measures throughout the province. Last week, the wholesale and retail prices of hunan vegetables declined by 4. 55 per cent and 1. 02 per cent, respectively, of which the average retail price of vegetables was $8. 75/kg。
The most significant drop was in eggplant, with prices falling by 19. 76 per cent, and other large upturns in retail prices of vegetables, such as broccoli, bean bean bean, bitter melon, vegetable and oil, which fell by 17. 72, 16. 98, 14. 53, 11. 06 and 9. 23 percentage points, respectively, from the previous week。
Pumpkin prices are $3. 41 per kilogram (lower) and spinach is $16. 63 per kilogram for vegetables with the lowest current prices and the highest current prices. Out of the 30 vegetable varieties in the seven main categories monitored, the total number of leaves and vegetables fell, the number of root and root drops was low, and the number of cases of cabbage, melon, eggplant and garlic increased. Among them, white carrots fell by 10. 97 per cent, and platinum, spinach, bean horns and broccoli fell by 6 to 8 per cent; cucumbers, cabbage and garlic fell by 2 to 4 per cent; peppers, peppers and melons increased by 5 to 8 per cent; and onions, tomatoes, cabbage and cabbage increased by 2 to 4 per cent。
At present, the main vegetable-supply areas, such as hainan, guangxi, guangdong and yunnan, are weathered and the vegetable supply is well developed and steady. In response to large fluctuations in vegetable prices, long-term supply agreements have been signed with production bases in major wholesale markets throughout the province to ensure a certain amount of dynamic reserves. With the onset of the winter and lower temperatures, prices of individual vegetable varieties throughout the province are expected to show a small upward trend over the coming period. Within the next two months, the market supply of vegetables will be largely met, with prices almost flat or slightly higher than in previous years。
The increase in meat prices reminds farmers not to sell blindly
Last week, retail prices for pork continued to rise throughout the province, narrowing down from the previous week. Monitoring showed that the average retail price of fresh pork was $27. 33/kg, an increase of 2. 47 per cent, the average retail price of post-legged meat was $27. 61/kg, an increase of 2. 34 per cent, and that the price of pork fluctuated within the range of $28. 84/kg ~24. 96/kg。
The fourth quarter was marked by peaks in cattle and sheep consumption, increased farm costs and higher prices for feed raw materials. Last week, the retail price of cattle and sheep increased slightly, with the retail price of fresh beef at $96. 2 per kilogram and the retail price of fresh meat at $83. 49 per kilogram, rising by 0. 17 per cent and 0. 22 per cent, respectively。
The recovery in pork prices is mainly due to increased demand for consumption driven by residential procurement, with the current level of pig stocks at almost 440 million, the highest level since 2014, and the market supply remains relatively relaxed. With the onset of winter, pork market consumption has been supported, and farmers have seen their moods rebound。
The department of commerce recommends that the vast number of farmers in the province should arrange for the production of pigs in an orderly manner, so that the current upturn in the price of pigs does not lead to blind pressure on the post-market situation, much less on the need to expand capacity and avoid greater losses in the later stages。
The price of fruit and fruit products in food and eggs is not volatile
The food market is now well supplied and demand is stable throughout the province, with an average retail price of $5. 82 per kilogram last week, an increase of 0. 17 per cent. This year, the national food harvest has been set, production will remain above 1. 3 trillion pounds for seven consecutive years, the supply of food markets is fully secure, and food prices are expected to continue to operate smoothly in the later stages。
As a result of preparations by major electricians, supermarkets and supermarkets, the consumption of eggs has increased in the short term, the cost of eggs has risen slightly throughout the province, the average price of eggs has increased by 0. 73 per cent at 12. 48 yuan/kg, and the average price of poultry has decreased by 0. 22 per cent. The rate of egg production in the egg chickens slowly slowed down into the winter and the cost of farming and transportation increased, with the possibility of a shock still expected throughout the province。
Last week saw a small increase in fruit prices throughout the province, mainly due to reduced supply of counter-season fruits such as watermelons and bananas, and higher import prices. Monitoring showed that the average retail value of fruit was $9. 33/kg, an increase of 0. 21 per cent, and that the price of fruit across the province was expected to fluctuate slightly in a reasonable period。
The average retail price of aquatic products was $32. 8/kg, an increase of 0. 4 per cent. There is now a strong supply and variety of freshwater fish throughout the province, and the decline in freshwater fish prices is expected to continue in a short period of time。
Last week, the average retail price of edible oil was $17. 1 per litre, an increase of 0. 23 per cent and a slight decrease of 0. 01 per cent in milk prices over the previous week. It is expected that the prices of edible oil and dairy products will hover at the current prices in the later period, without significant fluctuations。
