Why are vegetables getting more expensive?

This is because consumers are more and more fond of eating vegetables, and the market for vegetables is also a big gap, so it will naturally rise.

First of all, now our land resources are getting less and less, and many pure natural and pollution-free vegetables are very few, and the nutritional value of vegetables is getting higher and higher, and many times the supply exceeds demand.

Because of the weather, it is becoming more and more difficult to grow vegetables, and many vegetables are difficult to survive, so they are becoming more and more expensive.

These situations are entirely caused by the laws of the market. Despite the fact that every city is engaged"Vegetable baskets"Although the state has abolished some administrative fees and opened a high-speed green channel for the transportation of agricultural products, it seems difficult to make vegetables from the production area to the public's table efficiently and cheaply. Citizens complain that side dishes are more expensive than meat.

On the one hand, the peasants' hard-earned money can't shed tears! On the other hand, the peasants do not know what to do.

<> there are several key reasons for this. The cost of property is high. The stalls of supermarkets and vegetable markets in the city spend tens of thousands of dollars per month; Labor costs are also high in cities; In addition, the cost of living in the city is even very high, including renting or buying a house, education, etc.

For the people who sell vegetables, all of them will get the last benefit from this vegetable logistics costs. While highway fees are waived for the transportation of agricultural products, some taxes and fees are already included in gasoline and diesel**, and oil prices in China have been high.

Other high costs such as car purchase, maintenance, labor, etc. also need to be counted in the goods**! "。Many times, practitioners even feel the fact that the agricultural products purchased are not valuable, and once they are shipped to the destination, the logistics cost can make the price of the goods rise a lot!

Therefore, we must be cautious when buying agricultural products. Costs and losses of storage and preservation. Many vegetables have many links from harvest to serving, and if the time is not short, it is necessary to consider the problem of storage and preservation.

Use of cold storage, agricultural product rental costs, transshipment freight and preservation, and more. At the same time, there are many links, vegetables and other agricultural products will inevitably have losses, and the losses of some varieties are quite large. The added cost of these factors is added to the vegetables that can be sold!

Of course, there is also a supply and demand relationship, in the gap period of conventional vegetables, we can only rely on greenhouse vegetables to meet the market, and the production cost will also rise; At the same time, in the case of vegetables in short supply, according to the law of the market, the terminal market will inevitably appear in the first place.

Because due to the impact of the epidemic, the transportation of many materials has to be checked at all levels, and the difficulty of transportation has increased; In the south, the rain and snow weather increases, the road traffic is not smooth, the transportation is also very difficult, coupled with the climate impact, the vegetable production has decreased, resulting in the price of vegetables.

This is because many places have been affected by heavy rains, such as Henan, where the temperature has dropped particularly severely, and there has been snow in many southern regions, which has led to a large reduction in crop yields and has been affected by the epidemic.

Because the cost of growing vegetables is getting higher and higher, it will be sent to all parts of the country, and in the process of sending it to all parts of the country, it will increase the postage storage fee and management fee, so the vegetables will become more and more expensive.

Because the climate is relatively cold, the environment for growing vegetables has changed dramatically, and the survival rate of farmers planting vegetables has decreased, so the cost of input will be larger, and vegetables will be more and more expensive.

Because in winter, the transportation cost of vegetables increases, and the quantity is relatively small, so vegetables are sold more and more expensive.

First of all, there are "greenhouse" (out-of-season) vegetables and seasonal vegetables.

Secondly, there are certain conditions for the establishment of vegetable greenhouse bases (cost and customer source). According to the high consumption of local "greenhouse vegetables", there will be a greenhouse vegetable base with specific needs. In general, people will "do it when they have a profit".

Finally, there is a lot of meat that is obtained through captive-bred livestock. In addition, because China's animal husbandry is relatively rich, there are often more "sources" that can be provided to the market. Relative to vegetables, because most vegetables objectively exist in seasonality, their regionality arises from this, for example, a place where rape appears is often in the south, and the place where sugar beet appears is often in the north.

In short, vegetables are similar to a common phenomenon in economic development: demand impact**. When vegetables are in short supply, **rises.

When the supply of vegetables is less than the demand, ** decreases. For us, there can be many substitutes for "meat", as long as it is "meat", any "chicken, duck and fish" can be one. But when it comes to vegetables, "If you want to eat scrambled eggs with tomatoes, you can only buy tomatoes, you can't replace them with cucumbers, right?" ”

Can vegetarian dishes be sold expensive? The most important thing is to look at the relationship between supply and demand, if the ** is insufficient and the demand is strong, then ** will definitely be expensive.

It has been said that meat is now cheaper than vegetables. This is because after a year or so of changes in the pork market, the ** of pork is already very low. After the repeated epidemics and traffic problems caused by the epidemic, the ** of vegetables is getting higher and higher.

Moreover, vegetables are very difficult to preserve, and during the epidemic, everyone stays at home and the opportunity to go out to buy vegetables is reduced, which leads to higher operating costs caused by rotten vegetables.

First of all, the news that the epidemic in Shanghai has led to the rush of vegetables must have been heard by everyone. Even though the vegetables in Shanghai are ridiculously high, because they have to eat vegetables, everyone's enthusiasm for grabbing vegetables is still high.

So why is there a crisis of grabbing vegetables in Shanghai, where the transportation is so convenient? This is because of the relationship between transportation and epidemic control, and there is a problem with the transportation of vegetables. Cucumbers, garlic sprouts, spinach and other vegetables once reached an all-time high.

Even if the epidemic and transportation factors are excluded, the vegetables at this time of year will **will**. At the same time, vegetable **** actually appeared all over the country, not just in a certain city. The temperature in the first quarter was low, and even in the south, the yield of vegetables and fruits was relatively weak at this time.

The north follows the natural law of spring planting and autumn harvest, so in the spring, it needs more support from southern vegetables and fruits.

In addition to the relationship of the epidemic, in fact, the oil **** caused by the war is also the key to the high cost of transportation. We all know that now the ** of oil has broken through 9 yuan and reached a new historical high.

The higher merchant's spike and song transport ** increased the transportation cost, which was added to the account book of vegetable sales by the merchants. The final **** of vegetables will also increase because of the increase in cost, which is the inevitable law of market sales.

Therefore, some people laugh and say that now our "ethnic vegetable basket" is getting heavier and heavier. Not only because you have to stock up on vegetables for several days at a time, but also because these vegetables are exchanged for more money. Therefore, for the increase in the price of vegetables, in fact, everyone should also be accustomed to this time of year.

However, inflation is very strong this year, and it is difficult for anyone to predict how long prices will last.

In particular, the "capricious" epidemic has cast a haze over people's lives. People in the affected areas are working from home to earn as much income as possible to meet their daily expenses. Even if it is already so difficult, the **** of vegetables is a reality that cannot be resisted.

One is that there are fewer and fewer people who grow vegetables, and there are fewer and fewer people who know food, in the past, vegetable farmers were busy planting round vegetables day and night, managing vegetable water during the day, sorting out the finishing process at night, and preparing to go to the market for sale, they are the hardest and hardest technical people in this agricultural field. Modern vegetable planting management technology is also getting higher and higher. Seed fertilizer and pesticide storage, fresh appearance packaging, distribution and sales and other layers of checkpoints are also increasing a lot of costs.

It will be much more than the sister model of vegetable farmer assets. Vegetables are seasonal, and the vegetables in half the season will be relatively high, and many farmers have avoided centralized market time in order to be able to sell reliable vegetables.

2. The storage time of vegetables is short, and the storage time of most vegetables is very short. Usually two or three days. Some vegetables go to the supermarket in the morning and sell them at a low price in the afternoon.

Of course, if it is a hard vegetable such as carrots and potatoes, it will last longer. We usually know that summer vegetables are the cheapest and winter is the most expensive period. Because vegetables are most difficult to transport in winter, many vegetables will be sold nearby.

As an indispensable food in our daily life, vegetables have always attracted the hearts of our people, and the reason why he continues to ** is not that there are few people who grow vegetables.

3. The market is expensive for renting socks. Vegetables are usually sold in vegetable markets or supermarkets, there are countertops in the market, and the rental fee is also very expensive, this rental fee cannot be borne by the dealer himself, so this money can also be added to the vegetables and let the consumer bear it. This is the cost of agricultural inputs.

Now that everything has gone up, wages are not going up, and the cost of vegetables is getting higher and higher. For example, the labor force is insufficient to a certain extent, and the cost of fertilizers, pesticides, and electricity is getting higher and higher, so vegetables are also following.

There are three main reasons why vegetables are getting more and more expensive.

First, the climate is abnormal.

Originally, now is the time when vegetables are green and yellow, coupled with abnormal weather, especially some time ago, many places across the country ushered in a long period of rainy weather, more rainfall, and this year the temperature is relatively early, the weather is cold.

Rainfall and cooling, and abnormal weather conditions are not conducive to the production of vegetables, resulting in a decrease in yields. Especially after the flood disaster, the vegetable production will be reduced more severely, and the supply and demand will be tight, which will lead to the rise of the first grade.

That is to say, the weather is not beautiful, and the abnormal weather is the culprit of the vegetable ****.

Second, the cost of production**.

Another important reason is that the production cost of vegetables is also **, including seeds, fertilizers and labor costs are increasing, and in some places it has increased by 30%.

Because since the beginning of this year, the price of global bulk commodities and many agricultural production materials has also risen, especially the price of chemical fertilizers.

The data shows that in the first half of the year, the **per ton** of urea was about 2,000 yuan, and recently it has risen to more than 3,000 yuan.

And labor costs are also rising, before it was less than 100 yuan per person a day, but now it is more than 100 yuan.

The cost of ** will naturally be reflected in the vegetables**.

Third, transportation costs are also rising.

On the one hand, many places have suffered from floods, and vegetable wholesalers have to wholesale vegetables in all regions of the country, increasing the distance of transportation.

On the other hand, oil prices are also constantly arising. The international **** has hit a new high in the new year, and since the beginning of this year, domestic oil prices have risen for 14 consecutive years. Data from the National Bureau of Statistics showed that gasoline and diesel continued to increase in September, respectively.

This has caused the transportation cost of vegetables to be also **.

Therefore, under the superposition of the above factors, the price of vegetables has risen more than expected.

Rising demand: As people become more health-conscious, and environmental and animal welfare issues are being taken seriously, more and more people are adopting vegetarian diets or reducing meat intake. This has led to an increase in the demand for vegetables, which in turn has pushed up the number of vegetables**.

Increased production costs: The cost of producing vegetables is sometimes higher than that of meat, because vegetables require a lot of manpower and are affected by natural factors such as orange weather and water sources. In addition, in the process of vegetable production, it is also necessary to pay attention to environmental protection and soil conservation, which also increases the cost.

Shortage: Vegetable production can sometimes decrease due to weather, etc., resulting in shortages. This creates an imbalance between supply and demand, which in turn pushes up vegetables**.

Increased transportation costs: Due to the high requirements for vegetable preservation, transportation costs are also higher than for meat, as vegetables need to be transported faster.

In recent years, with the improvement of people's awareness of healthy diet and environmental protection, more and more people have begun to make vegetables a feast as the main part of their daily diet. At the same time, however, the inevitable problem is that more and more vegetables are also being made, and some are even more expensive than meat. Here are some of the reasons that can cause this:

Weather impact: Natural disasters such as drought, floods, wind disasters, etc. will affect the production and quality of vegetables, resulting in a shortage of vegetables. For example, in the southern region, there is often a situation of vegetables **** during the typhoon season.

Rising production costs: With the development of society and the price level, the production cost of vegetables is also rising. Growing vegetables requires manpower, material and financial resources, including the increasing cost of seeds, pesticides, fertilizers, irrigation and labor.

In this context, vegetable **** has become an inevitability.

Increased market competition: In recent years, as the market has become more competitive, so has the competition between vegetable growers and wholesalers. This kind of competition can lead to some unethical filial behavior, such as manipulation, which leads to the speed of the game.

Challenges in fresh logistics and sales: Vegetable production and sales face a series of challenges, such as high logistics costs, difficulties in cold chain transportation, storage and preservation problems, and so on. These problems can lead to vegetables****.

Changes in consumer demand: As people's awareness of health and environmental protection increases, more and more people are opting for a vegetarian diet or reducing their meat intake, resulting in an increase in the demand for vegetables. At the same time, some high-end vegetables, such as organic vegetables, green vegetables, imported vegetables, etc., are higher, which also promotes the growth of vegetables.

In general, vegetables **** are the result of a combination of factors. With the development of society and the advancement of technology, some problems such as weather disasters and logistics problems may be solved, but problems such as rising production costs and intensified market competition may take longer to solve. At the same time, in order to solve the problem of vegetable ****, more solutions need to be explored, such as:

Improve vegetable production efficiency: adopt more scientific agricultural planting technology to improve the yield and quality of vegetables, reduce production costs, and thus reduce vegetables.

Strengthen market supervision: strengthen market supervision, reduce manipulation behavior, and protect the interests of consumers.

Promote the trading and circulation of vegetables: by optimizing logistics and transportation, reduce the cost of transportation of vegetables, burial and loss, so as to reduce vegetables**.

Encourage consumers to eat healthily: Encourage consumers to improve their health by eating healthily while reducing the need for meat, thereby relieving the pressure on vegetables.

Promote the brand and market-oriented operation of vegetables: through the establishment of brands and the promotion of market-oriented management, improve the added value and competitiveness of vegetables, so as to increase the income and profits of vegetables.

In short, vegetable **** is a relatively complex problem that needs to be solved from many aspects. The joint efforts of enterprises, enterprises and consumers can achieve the stability of vegetables and the popularization of healthy diets.
