Prices of all kinds of vegetables have risen in varying degrees as the weather has cooled, while garlic, which has been high last year, has been on the downward trend.
A visit to a number of wholesale markets in jining city found that the retail price of garlic declined sharply from last year.
28 according to jining city business bureau website information display, this year, jinxiang garlic increase from last year about 60000 mu of cultivated area, combined with the climate condition is better this year, production increased generally, so far, warehousing capacity has reached 2.5 million tons, 1.65 million tons last year, compared increased about 50%, jinxiang in and around the cold storage inventory capacity tends to saturation, the market oversupply situation.
"At present, garlic in the germination period, the price will fell, coupled with the increase of the garlic planted area, merchants can subconsciously in garlic" day ", under the merchants psychology and the current situation of the market supply, little room for price increases."
"Last month, garlic sold for three dollars per kilo, but now it can only sell for two or three, and the price is changing too fast."
Shandong jinxiang garlic storage, Mr Wang told reporters, in late July, jinxiang garlic garlic market transaction price is per kilogram in about three blocks, and now just over a month of time, the price is from the three pieces of three into two pieces.
Learned, with big garlic insurance coverage, increasing farmers planted area, but garlic market does not enlarge, therefore, not to form a good market mechanism, production and marketing of plus dehydrated garlic production ability is limited, new garlic is not real-time slicing export, caused the market to present the state of oversupply.
At present, the garlic dehydrated enterprises still generally hold wait-and-see attitude, which will have a certain effect on the price of garlic.
For the downward trend in the current price of garlic, jinxiang will guide farmers to early maturity varieties, moss, se-enriched garlic garlic, blanched garlic leaves, garlic sprout, and diverse varieties, at the same time to carry out the double membrane cover, small tunnel cultivation, such as planting patterns, stagger the time to market, increase the ability to resist risks.
At the same time, encourage enterprises to develop processing industry of garlic, garlic processing enterprises "reservoir" function into full play, and form a stable sales channels, to avoid ups and downs of the garlic price, guarantee the stability of garlic farmers make a profit.
Actively promote the standard of international standard and international standard, increase the demand for garlic;
