Why does broccoli increase in price?
The reduction of vegetable production and insufficient market supply are the primary reasons for this round of vegetable price increase. Cucumber in Sichuan mainly comes from Yunnan, Shandong and other places, but recently, the temperature in the north has dropped rapidly, there is much rain, and the vegetable producing areas have been flooded, which has led to a sharp increase in cucumber prices.
The epidemic has led to an increase in freight and labor costs.
The freight has increased by 100 yuan per ton. Sichuan's broccoli, peppers, celery and other vegetables have to be transported from Gansu, but the recent Lanzhou epidemic has led to traffic control and difficult vehicle scheduling. Vegetable vendors in the wholesale market also reported that the Yunnan epidemic led to stricter border clearance, and the border labor force could not cross the border, which increased the harvesting cost of vegetables such as cucumbers. However, compared with leafy vegetables and melons, onions, potatoes and other vegetables have sufficient stocks and stable prices. What are the problems worthy of attention behind the recent skyrocketing vegetable prices? Sichuan Online will continue to pay attention.
