my country's pepper industry has entered a stage of stable supply and demand

In the 1990s, with the emergence of China's reform and opening up and urbanization, the population began to flow on a large scale

The price trend is mainly stable

According to the incomplete statistics of the Red Food Industry Research Institute, up to now, after long-term natural selection and artificial breeding, more than 60 varieties of cultivated pepper have been formed in China

According to the monitoring of the Xinhua Index team, as of December 30, 2021, the national pepper price index reported 902.

From January to March 2021, there will be frosts in some prickly ash-producing areas, and the market's concern about the production reduction of prickly ash will drive the price of prickly ash to rise.

Comparing different production areas, it is found that the price of first-class pepper in the main production areas of red pepper in Wudu and Maoxian has obvious advantages, and the price trend is basically stable throughout the year; the price in Hanyuan is generally advantageous, but the price trend fluctuates greatly

Judging from the trend of the Xinhua·China (Wudu) pepper price index in 2021, the price of pepper is greatly affected by the epidemic and extreme weather factors, but the overall trend is stable and the industry is running smoothly

Wei Anzhi, chairman of the National Innovation Alliance of Zanthoxylum Industry, analyzed that in 2021, despite the disasters in some Zanthoxylum bungeanum producing areas, there will still be a bumper harvest overall

Yang Jianlei, deputy director of the Sichuan Pepper Research Institute of the Longnan Economic Forest Research Institute, believes that China's pepper will initially enter a stage of oversupply in 2021

Adhere to the concept of "high quality and good price"

Luo Chengrong, a researcher at the Sichuan Academy of Forestry Sciences, believes that under the influence of the epidemic, China's red pepper industry will grow steadily in 2021, while the green pepper industry will shrink

First, because the consumer groups and regions of Zanthoxylum are limited by dietary habits, the expansion of export channels such as the “Belt and Road” requires a long process

Qin Shengliang, head of China Pepper Network, believes that the price trend of green peppercorns in 2021 will be less correlated with red peppercorns.

The development trend of the pepper industry in 2022 is a topic of concern to every practitioner in the pepper industry, and industry experts have also given their respective forecasts

Wei Anzhi believes that the price of peppercorns in 2022 is expected to be basically the same as that in 2021, but it is still necessary to guard against the risk of oversupply and repeated epidemics

　　The Xinhua Index market monitoring team found through a sample survey of wholesalers that about 60% of wholesalers believe that the price of peppercorns in the first half of 2022 will be basically the same as that at the end of 2021
