“it's a hell of a thing to say that cilantro went up to $15 a pound a week ago, and that a lot of supermarkets even broke down.” on 29 august, journalists were informed by citizens at risk that the prices of cuisine had recently been soared as a rocket, which had puzzled many。
On the morning of 29 august, journalists arrived at a cheap supermarket in the town of quijiang and saw that the price of cuisine had indeed risen significantly. “39 pounds of onions and $15 a pound of cuisine?” a citizen, ms. Liu, was surprised by the price when she bought the onions and tried to buy the cuisine。
In a large shop in a small district of iiokayama road, journalists saw the vegetable price labels with a “fifty pickles of $15 per pound” and no sign of it in the cupboard. “the prices of cigarettes are too high and the inhabitants of the neighbourhoods are buying too little. No more deliveries today.” the manager of the supermarket told the journalist。
During the interview, journalists were told that the increase in the price of cuisine generally occurred in the snow, and that it was difficult to understand why the weather had soared. “at 38 to 40 degrees celsius in the previous period, the temperature in the market was higher in the vegetable sheds than in the outdoors, so that the growth of vegetables, especially vegetables such as cuisine and mustard, could stagnate, directly affected by high temperatures and with a marked decrease in production.” song xinhua, a senior agronomist in the market, told reporters that the market supply would not keep pace with the relatively small area of fragrances that had been grown in the city, as well as reduced production due to high temperatures. In the future, with the arrival of a suitable temperature, the price of cigarettes will certainly show a marked decline and return to a reasonable range。
