April and May each year is the period of seasonal price reduction of many agricultural products, and fruits and vegetables are no exception. At present, the prices of fruits, lychees and cherries on the market are obviously reduced, and even durian is imported. Vegetables in the market are generally very cheap. There are more and more dishes in 2 yuan, and potatoes, cucumbers and tomatoes are more and more affordable. Some vegetables, such as Chinese cabbage, used to have a low market price and a large output, but now they are cheap and even unsalable in their producing areas.
Nowadays, cabbages in many places have matured. This vegetable is planted on a large scale with high yield, and there are many producing areas in China. Recently, it's time to harvest and sell cabbages in Xuchang, Shangqiu, Chenzhou, Nantong, Jiangsu and Shanghai. This year, the output of cabbage in these producing areas is as usual, and the quantity is relatively large, catching up with the centralized listing. Sales have become a big problem.
Chinese cabbage is one of the common vegetables in the market, which is cheap, crisp and nutritious, and is very popular with consumers. Now it is maturing. For vegetable farmers, this year is a high-yield year, but the high-yield is not good and the price is too low. Seeing that the cabbage in the field is not easy to sell, some vegetable farmers ask only 30 cents, but even so, the effect is still not good.
These unsalable producing areas are either unable to transport because of the epidemic, or there are too few vendors from other places, and few vendors can be seen every day. Now that the cabbage in the field is ripe, you can't always put it in the field. Selling quickly is the most important thing. These cabbages have been carefully cared for by vegetable farmers for months before planting. Fertilization, weeding, insecticidal and so on have not fallen. Now everyone is counting on selling it for profit, but look at the current market, which makes many vegetable farmers anxious.
Cabbages in the field have been piled up for some time. If you don't pick it again, it will crack when the weather is hot, and it will be even less valuable then. No one will accept it at all, so it will only rot in the ground.
The vegetable farmers only ask for 30 cents. Compared with the market situation, this price is already very low, just enough for the cost, not making money. Even so, the situation is still not optimistic, we can't wait for vendors, and we can't pull the wholesale market to sell ourselves. Retail is no good, and now vegetable farmers have nothing to do. The harvest period and sales period of cabbage are only half a month at most. If we continue to drag on like this, it will only rot in the ground, and this season's income will be wasted.
In fact, cabbage, the main course, has been unsalable for several years, last year and the year before. On the one hand, it is affected by the epidemic, on the other hand, it is the choice of the market. At present, the price of vegetables in this period is generally very cheap, consumers have many choices, and the competition pressure of cabbage is great. For vegetable farmers, they don't have their own independent sales channels and can only wait for vendors, which is very passive. Now the low price is unsalable, and the scene repeats itself, which makes people feel very distressed.
