Crab price before the Double Ninth Festival

Introduction: 50% reduction at most The crab vendor will sell "crab roe" tomorrow is Chongyang Festival Reporters visited the market yesterday and found that the price of crabs hit a new low before the festival Some restaurants even advertised "crab 1 yuan 1 piece" to attract customers Due to the low retail price, some market vendors simply boil the crab and sell the crab roe Has the crab, which has been called the "aristocrat" of aquatic products, really oversupplied this year? Will crab prices go down in an all-round way this year? What do farmers and experts think? The reporter made an exclusive interview on this Phenomenon: this year, the price of ordinary crabs dropped by 50% at the highest "This year, the price of crabs is generally lower than that of previous years." Zhang Maohua, section chief of huiminqiao market office, the largest aquatic wholesale market in Nanjing, told reporters yesterday According to him, it's not surprising that a few yuan crab appears in the restaurant this year For example, the wholesale price of two or so common crabs matched by male and female on the market is only 17-18 yuan for 500g, and 14-15 yuan for male crabs, down 25% from the same period last year The price of the male and female crabs with three heads is about 24 yuan, and that of the male crabs is 17.8 yuan, 40% and 50% lower than last year respectively He told reporters that this was mainly due to the large number of crabs on the market so far this year At present, the total listed volume in one day is 35 tons, compared with about 20 tons at this time last year From the crab market to now, the total market volume is about 20% more In addition, this year is different from the past In the past, there were always two festivals in the Mid Autumn Festival, national day and Chongyang However, the three festivals were separated, making the demand period not concentrated Several factors contributed to the low price of common crab Tracking cultivation area and crabmeat production are all higher than those in previous years Then, why is the supply of crabmeat increased so significantly this year? Zhang section chief introduced that now the farmers all adopt the method of "captive breeding" - lengthening the production period of crabs This year, in the production areas around Jiangsu Province, a lot of crabs that have been put in for two or three years have arrived at the time of large-scale fishing, that is, the so-called "big year" The size of crabs is also larger than in previous years Liu, who sells crabs in huiminqiao market, said the price of crabs has reached its lowest level in years The reasons are as follows: first, when the crab reaches its mature stage, the fishing volume is the largest, and the supply of farmers to the market is naturally the largest; second, because the farmers made more money from selling crab in the previous two years, the cultivation area is larger than that in previous years, and the crab fry is also increased, which is the most fundamental reason Embarrassment: the retail price of ordinary crab is almost close to the purchase price The low price of ordinary crab makes some small crab farmers and distributors cry out Yesterday, in a agricultural and sideline product market near taipingbei road in Nanjing, the retail price of crabs was close to the purchase price Reporter sees, stand backbone crisp to cook crab, pick out crab yellow to sell According to the stall owner, crabmeat costs 50-80 yuan per 500g Although it costs time and labor, it can earn some money more or less According to a crab farmer, as far as the cost of raising crab is concerned, the water area with high feed input in a year will cost nearly 10000 yuan per mu, plus crab fry and other expenses, so the price of crab is too low to earn According to industry insiders, the sales price and purchase price of some crab dealers this year are almost the same For some farmers, the profit is 20% - 30% lower than last year Analysis: the price of crab market is in a "different direction" Although the price of ordinary crab is in a low voice, the reporter found in the interview that the polarization of crab market is still obvious this year Some famous brand crabs have a much better life because of their stable price The price of crabs in Yangcheng Lake and Gucheng Lake has risen about 20% this year Zhang Ming, a big crab farmer in Yangcheng Lake, told reporters that they only invest 800 crabs per mu in the water area for cultivation and produce them at 200 or 300 Jin After five years, they will exchange a piece of water area for re cultivation With careful cultivation, the "opening price" of this year will be higher than that of previous years Qiu Wenzhong, the head of Jiangsu Taihu Lake Aquatic Products Co., Ltd., said that for more than 42 crabs, their purchase price is currently 75 yuan per 500g, down slightly compared with last year, but the price is still relatively firm, and the daily walk volume is basically more than 20 tons Chen Adu, head of Hengshan fishery community in Wujiang City, said that by the golden week of this year, his crab breeding base had sold nearly 1000 tons of crabs, many of which were exported to Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and Southeast Asia, with considerable profits Countermeasures: extending crab deep processing industry chain is the way Hu Hao, an associate professor of agricultural economics at the school of economics and management of Nanjing Agricultural University, pointed out that there were no dead crabs or running crabs due to flood this year With the improvement of breeding technology, crabs of all kinds came to the market According to the general law of the price of agricultural and sideline products - 10% increase in output and 30% decrease in price, the market demand for agricultural and sideline products is limited When supply increases, prices fall Only by carrying out large-scale breeding, timely mastering market information and expanding sales channels, can crab farmers extend the industrial chain and resist the market storm At the same time, the deep processing of crabs, such as the production of crab yellow, crab oil and drunk crabs, is also a way to reduce the price of shunting crabs.
