The prices of various agricultural products such as grains, fruits, and vegetables are the focus of tens of millions of farmers, because every fluctuation in prices will directly affect their annual income, and almost every year there is news that vegetables are unsaleable. Now is the time to harvest Chinese cabbage and put it on the market, but because the purchase price is less than 20 cents, the price has fallen to the bottom, and vegetable farmers are miserable!

Second, the reason why the price of cabbage is low this year

This is mainly because the supply of cabbage this winter is very abundant. At the beginning of this spring, because many farmers had no vegetables in their cellars, the price of Chinese cabbage increased one after another. In the second half of the year, many farmers expanded their planting areas. Nationwide, the planting area of ??Chinese cabbage continues to expand. In the past, the main producing areas of Chinese cabbage were Yutian, Tangshan, Qinhuangdao and other places in Hebei Province. However, in recent years, several major vegetable producing areas in Shandong, Hebei, Henan and Inner Mongolia have planted a large amount of cabbage during this season. This year, Chinese cabbage in Yutian, Zhangjiakou and Shandong provinces in Hebei Province has not yet been harvested at the wrong peak. They are all listed at the same time. Not only did prices not increase, but many cabbages were left in the fields early, with no one coming to harvest them.

Many people say, why don’t vegetable farmers transport cabbages to the market to sell them? First of all, there are many problems with cabbage during transportation. Also, not many Chinese cabbages are sold this way. Besides, it's not the same anymore. People can buy a variety of vegetables in supermarkets in winter, not just winter vegetables such as cabbage and radishes. Nowadays, vegetables are bought as they are eaten, which is different from the previous practice of storing hundreds of kilograms of cabbage for the winter. In addition, now that the phenomenon of hoarding Chinese cabbage during winter in the north is coming to an end, people can digest even less Chinese cabbage. In fact, low harvest prices have become a common phenomenon not only for Chinese cabbage, but also for the entire vegetable industry. Compared with previous years, the total supply of vegetables this year has increased, so the vegetable market is relatively weak from summer to autumn. Many vegetable varieties remain unmarketable, causing farmers to suffer considerable losses. Therefore, in order to effectively avoid losses, everyone should understand the market conditions before planting.
