The newspaper has recently reported that onions farmers are much more fortunate this year than onions farmers who sell $0. 95/snake. It is understood that onion prices in the surveillance market are generally between 0. 25 and 0. 40 per pound, and onions stored between 0. 30 and 0. 45 per pound. The acre is about 10,000 pounds of onions, and an acre is worth 3,000 to 4,000. And onion brokers, who are less fortunate than they were last year, have claimed that bad prices have caused most of the brokers to lose。
Growers:
Sales price is the same as in previous years
“this year is a good year for onion prices that are not as volatile as garlic, earning $34,000 per acre, more than other cash crops.” the villagers of the old village of wu, the administration village of li dynasty, said that he had grown nearly 10 acres this year, more than three acre less than last year, and that his income was good. There are a lot of villagers like wu jinyu in li dynasty town。
“a total of 105,000 acres, with an area of 23,000 acres grown onions, will be produced in the town to 70 million in 2011.” the secretary-general of the li dynasty township party of single county, zhui khun, said that there was a good market for onions grown by onions farmers, and that the town had been able to build local cold banks for onions for sale at a price. In addition, the town has expanded its outreach to attract foreign investors for local purchases. Wu told reporters that the price of onions this year is between $0. 25 and $0. 45 per pound. He said that onions were different in variety and production was different, with an onion species grown locally, called “dick red”, producing between 7,000 and 12,000 pounds of acre, at a price of 0. 35 pounds per acre, 10,000 pounds per acre, worth more than $3,000, excluding more than $1,000 in cost and a profit of 2,000。
Broker:
Bad competition leads to losses
“the purchasers of onions last year made money, while this year's blind bidding resulted in high prices for local onions, which varied significantly from those of foreign customers, and most onions brokers lost.” mr. Guan, an onion broker in lee dynasty town, single county, said that he had been engaged in onions acquisition for six years, turning from an onion farmer to an onion broker。
According to mr. Guan, the purchase price of onions last year was around $0. 4 per pound, and it was unexpected that the price of onions in the later stages had risen to even $0. 7 per pound. According to mr. Guan, he had acquired 1,000 tons of onions, which, after losing his hands, had earned nearly 200,000. According to mr. Guan, there was a marked increase in the number of brokers buying onions this year, and it is feared that they will not be able to acquire onions, and onions brokers will begin to compete among themselves, leading to prices ranging from $0. 3 to $0. 53 per pound, while the price of the last customer is around $0. 35 per pound, and the price of the onions will be lost。
“it is more prudent to buy one's own, and in cases where prices are not clear, it is not much to lose.” mr. Guan said that the onion economy had been a double-chance this year compared to last year。
Dealer:
2,000 tons of cold storage makes more than $200,000 a year
Unlike the onions broker, who was swimming in the chain, the distributors downstream in the chain had always been able to make good money。
It is understood that li dynasty town, as an onion planting base, has built four large freezers locally through the solicitation of funds, which have made it possible for foreign traders to acquire onions for local storage and to load them directly into containers for export to countries such as japan, korea and viet nam。
"we only charge storage fees, nothing else." the head of the oceanic refrigerator, li dynasty town, said that the total storage capacity of the ocean refrigerator was 2,000 tons at a cost of $260 per ton, and that it earned more than $200,000 annually, excluding electricity, labour, etc。
