Introduction: Recently, Shanghai Bureau of Statistics announced the market price in the first quarter of this city Due to the low temperature and rainy winter this year, as well as the promotion of holiday consumption and other factors, including fresh vegetables, aquatic products, meat and poultry and other food prices rose all the way It is understood that since the first quarter of this year, more than two months of rainy weather and five snowfalls have seriously affected the production of vegetables in the suburbs In addition, this winter's low temperature and rainy disaster area is large, and neighboring provinces and cities are also generally affected by the disastrous climate, so vegetable prices have risen to varying degrees As of February, the price of fresh vegetables in the city soared, 53.4% higher than the previous month and 31.6% higher than the same month last year The price of aquatic products continued to rise, with the average price of shrimp up 28.3% over the previous month, the average price of hairy crabs up 49.5%, and the price of sea water fish up 9.6% In addition, the average price of pork and beef also increased by 1.1% and 2.9% respectively compared with the previous month However, as the weather warms up and the supply increases, the price of fresh vegetables in this city will fall The rise of vegetables is surprising The reporter interviewed the relevant management departments and market information departments respectively They all said that the rise is in a controllable range "The big rise in vegetables is a bit surprising." Shi Xingzhong, deputy director of the Agriculture Commission, pointed out that vegetables are most affected by the weather in all crops "Since late December of last year, the climate of low temperature, low light and rainy in Shanghai has been rare in the past 50 years." Since February, the growth of green leafy vegetables in suburbs has been seriously damaged, and the supply of vegetables has been affected by the disastrous weather of continuous rain and little light Cao'an vegetable market manager Shen also said that the rainy days caused the freight to rise, and vegetables from other provinces and cities did not dare to enter Shanghai in large quantities, which caused the price of vegetables to rise sharply for various reasons In response to this phenomenon, the Shanghai Agricultural Committee began to deploy the emergency planting of suburban green leafy vegetables in the end of February In the middle of March, the first batch of green leafy vegetables have been listed Since then, with the warming of the climate and the gradual maturity of rush to grow vegetables, the price of vegetables in the market will gradually decline The rise of aquatic product price is expected, and the rise of aquatic product price is expected in the eyes of the insiders Ms Zhan, an analyst of Shanghai aquatic products market, told reporters that generally speaking, aquatic products such as shrimps began to appear on the market around August 15, and the sales peak was around the Spring Festival After the Spring Festival, fish and shrimps have entered the incubation stage, and the market supply has gradually decreased Therefore, the rise of aquatic products from the Spring Festival to the Spring Festival is reasonable At the same time, Ms Zhan told reporters that in April, marine fishing and aquaculture began to enter the normal production stage, and the listing volume gradually increased However, as the peak of aquatic consumption has passed, the market trading volume began to shrink, and the price of aquatic products will generally fall Pork and beef rose slowly in the first quarter of all rising varieties, pork and beef rose the slowest Zhang Suhua, deputy director of Shanghai Animal Husbandry Office, said that the price of animal husbandry products was generally stable, and the rise in the first quarter was mainly affected by the traditional Spring Festival festival At the same time, he also said that with the increase of feed prices, it is estimated that meat prices will show a slight upward trend in the following days.
