It's more like a hot search。
Hangzhou’s online friend liu’s post says:
In the past few years, the country has been facing a watermelon assassin
"thirty dollars for a little half of the watermelon."
Are the watermelons really upped lately
Journalists went to the hangzhou fruit whole market
Agricultural markets and online platforms
I've been looking around。
Temperatures and declining production from origin
This year, prices have risen
Journalists first came to the hangzhou fruit wholesale market in liangzhou, where the owner of the business, man peng, was selling local watermelons, including 8424, meidu and queen king。
He described the relative parity of the price of watermelon 8424, the relatively softer taste of the swab, the sale of 59 pounds to 12 pounds, four 139 dollars and two 75 dollars, equivalent to 4. 9-5. 3 pounds. Metou watermelon, 4. 5 dollars per pound, both color and taste。
According to manpo, the ceilings for watermelon are queen gold, cucumber, cucumber, cucumber and sweet, but because of the small amount of cultivation, they are sold at slightly higher prices than normal watermelon. Seven pounds of specifications for 68 yuan/s and ten pounds of specifications for 88 yuan/s, equivalent to 8. 8-9. 7 yuan/s。
“the price is more expensive, but the customers who like it are willing to bear it.”
With regard to the increase in the price of watermelons, mr. Wan explained that “recently, the guacamole has gone down, and few are on the market”, and that this lack of greenness has led to an increase in prices, “when the latter supply follows, prices will fall”
The journalists have come to the fruit stand of the owner of the hannon market in yu, where the rice and watermelon from jiangsu salt city have been listed in large quantities, with specifications of 8-10 pounds。
According to master shao, last year's 8424 was $2. 8 a pound and the beauty was 3. 5 a pound. “this year it was a little bit expensive, and it was sold in april for five or six pounds, and now it's down to 3. 8 and 4. 8
Turning to the reasons for this, mr. Shao said that the recent warming had resulted in a sudden increase in sales, but production from origin had declined, resulting in a supply shortage and natural high prices。
In july and august, he was able to sell 2 or 3 kilos of watermelon every day, and in august and september, watermelon will be available in yunnan and hainan. "at the back of the heat, the sales should be better."
How do you pick the "preserve" watermelon? The wholesaler, boss man, shares some small skills, and you can use them next time:
Look under the watermelon's ass. The smaller the dot, the deeper the line, the thicker the guacamole, the greater the curvature
On-line buying platform
This kind of "dreaming melon" is worth $10 per pound
What's the status on the online platform
On one of the shopping apps, journalists found that the cheapest of these were gill watermelon, 39. 9 dollars for 3kg, equivalent to 6. 65 yuan per pound, and the most expensive of these, the special phoenix watermelon, with 1. 5kg specification of 32. 8 yuan per pound, equivalent to 10. 9 yuan per pound。
A similar situation is found in the other case, where 39. 9 yuan per kg of neptunium, 19. 9 yuan per month of 1. 2 kg of melon and 25. 9 yuan per week of phoenix of 1. 25 kg。
Despite the high prices, the “hot food” of people seems to be on the rise. Some have commented on the plumbing as a “dreaming melon”, “reduced with thin skin and abundant moisture”, and said that the plume, “sweet melon, sweet, cut almost like a crack”。
Watermelon is expensive
And for these reasons
Reason 1: watermelons enter new varieties to develop heat
New varieties of watermelons are increasing. At present, the main watermelon species consumed are nitromelon and ganme. There are also subdivisions such as 8424, 8424 on the south-coast, and u. S. D。
In the development of new varieties, the combination of production studies and even the development of new products in response to different groups of people creates the cost of developing and nurturing, which is one of the reasons for the current high prices of new species of watermelons。
From market feedback, watermelon enters the process of competition at the site as consumer awareness rises. According to mr. Zhang, a fruit electrician, its consumers often ask about the area and species of the watermelon in order to make a preliminary purchase judgement, which has increased their awareness. In his selection, there was also a greater tendency towards high-quality melons in high-quality production areas, “which are more affordable”。
Reason 2: increased costs of planting techniques
It is understood that, over the past decade or so, our watermelon production has completed the transition from field to facility cultivation. With the innovation of cultivation patterns, new technologies such as the development of exclusive plant varieties, plant breeding, multilayer coverage, etc. Are increasingly being matched。
“our watermelon cultivation model, which includes technologies such as hydroponic management, is of considerable international importance, and the watermelon produced in our country occupies an important international position.” professor siem reap yang, university of agriculture, china, told the journalist。
The optimization of planting techniques allows melons to develop watermelons that are more sweeter and more standardized in quality and specifications, but the technological costs behind them have been increased accordingly。
Li wenwang, deputy director-general of the shanghai boxing village agricultural professional cooperation association, said that farmers might have sold some watermelons in the past when they planted them。
But now, they are using the “ito” method of planting, channelling most of the nutrients to this melon through the melon, and picking only the watermelon with their head; in order to ensure the nutrients of the land and to avoid endemic diseases, a five-year cycle mechanism has been launched, with the same land being planted only once in five years。
“the production of watermelons is distinguished between the areas from which the seedling is grown and the areas from which the seedling is grown, the quality and taste of the seedlings will be better and the price of the land will be about 30 per cent higher, but normally after the planting of the seedlings, the land will need to be reprieved for at least three years before it can continue to grow. All of this increases the cost of watermelon cultivation。
