What is the price of onions in Henan in 2008? As long as Henan price

On May 30th, Changsha netizen "Private Land" expressed his sadness in his blog appeal: "Yesterday, a kilo of green onions was sold to 20 yuan, and today another kilo of green onions is sold to 40 yuan, but some supermarkets can't buy them at all. Pork is only1a kilo in 6 yuan ... "Since last year, 1 1, the price of green onions has risen at an unprecedented speed nationwide, and the price of green onions has become a hot topic of public discussion. "Go to the rice noodle shop to eat powder in the morning. If you put chopped green onion, you have to add 50 cents to a spoonful. " Netizen Xiao Guagua said. In June 2006, the average retail price of green onions in China was only that in 0.8 yuan. Compared with the same period in 2006 and 2007, the retail price of green onions has now increased by 20 times. A few days ago, an exclusive reporter from Zhengzhou Evening News rushed to Zhangqiu, the hometown of green onions in China, to investigate and solve the mystery of the sky-high price of green onions. Green onions have become a sought-after aristocratic dish. Green onions, which were originally sold very cheaply, have now become "aristocratic dishes", excluding the factors that the snowstorm in the south affected the price of vegetables. An account of Ms. Yang, a citizen of Zhengzhou, also reflects this fact. Since 2007 1 1 month, green onions have been listed in a high profile. The retail price of Zhengzhou rose from 1 yuan to 6 yuan in less than two months, with an increase of over 500%. "I can't buy good onions yet, almost all of them are local onions in Henan. Shandong onions are sold at least seven or eight times in supermarkets, and I have never seen them several times. " At Zhutun Farmers' Market, Agricultural West Road, Zhengzhou City, where the price of vegetables is low, Mr. Xu, a vegetable vendor from eastern Henan, said, "The lowest 4 yuan is the local onion in Henan, which is produced in Guangwu. Our wholesale price is very high because of the low output caused by the disaster. In 2007, before 1 1, I had been selling onions in Shandong, but I dared not enter the market since 2007. The purchase price was too high, and the supply of onions in Shandong was in short supply. " On February 24th, 2008, in Zhengzhou's vegetable market, green onions rose to 8 yuan per kilogram. In June, 2006, the average retail price of scallion per kilogram was only in 0.8 yuan. Compared with the same period in 2006 and 2007, the retail price of green onions has increased by 20 times. Due to the decrease in supply. Buyers all over the world try their best to find the source of high quality and low price green onions. Many vegetable wholesalers have posted online purchase stickers, looking for green onions nationwide, regardless of distance. "Although the price is increased layer by layer, the big head is still the price of the onion farmers in the producing area, which leads to the retail price going up. Although the price of green onions is high, the profit on our side is not obvious. " Bai An, a wholesaler in Liu Zhuang, Zhengzhou, said. The hometown of the onion king has been out of stock. "Onions are pungent, slightly warm, and have the functions of releasing yang, detoxifying and seasoning. It can stop abdominal pain and diarrhea. " According to ancient records of green onions, green onions not only have strong medicinal value, but also are rich in nutrition. But they are basically used for daily seasoning. What caused the price of green onions to rise at a sky-high price and become a hot commodity? A few days ago, the reporter came to Zhangqiu City, Jinan, Shandong Province. Zhangqiu is one of the main producing areas of green onions in China. Since the Ming Dynasty, the cultivation of green onions has been very common. In China, it is called the "King of Onions". 1July, 1999, the trademark "Zhangqiu Welsh Onion" was registered, becoming the first certificate of origin trademark of vegetables in China. Today, there are 10 million mu of green onion planting land in this area. Zhangqiu Onion Wholesale Market is located in Zaoyuan Street, which is one of the largest professional Onion Wholesale Markets in Shandong. On the morning of February 22nd 10, in front of the wholesale market, a green onion carving stood tall. The wholesale market is deserted, there is nothing under the three greenhouses, and there is no onion leaf on the ground. In the market, the doors of onion dispatching room, market management office, logistics company and other units are closed. "Here would have closed. Now, all wholesale markets are empty. " A nearby villager said, "Green onions have been out of stock, and they were out of stock years ago." "Where can I buy onions?" "Zhangqiu's onions have been bought almost. If you want to buy it, you can only see who has left some food for yourself. " A taxi driver in Zhangqiu said, "It is normal for you to say that onions are expensive in other places. Years ago, we locals bought onions for five yuan a catty. The situation is good this year, and onions sell well at once. Now you may not find an onion seller in ten food stalls. If you want car wholesale, there is no such thing. " You can marry a wife by selling eight acres of onions. In 2007 1 1 months ago, Aunt Wang Huiyun of Mingshan Village, Zaoyuan Town, Zhangqiu City was very sad. The rainy days in January ruined the good harvest of green onions. Wang Huiyun is hopeless, because the price of onions in 2006 was too cheap. Although there was a bumper harvest, he didn't make any money. This year, all eight acres of land in the family have been planted with green onions. This time, nearly half of the green onions rotted in the ground. Wang Huiyun originally thought it was a loss-making business. Recalling the hard work of planting onions in those years, she felt that it would be even more painful than the lowest point in history in 2006. On the morning of February 23, 2008, in the approximate market of Zaoyuan Town, Wang Huiyun put up his own food stall with a big smile. I heard that the reporter came here and took out several bundles of full green onions, which is the only bundle of green onions in the village farmers' market that produces green onions. "I sell vegetables wholesale, and only green onions are planted in our family. Girl, this is the best onion stored at home. That's all. You said it was expensive outside. Aunt won't make money for you if you want it. I'll give you 4 yuan a catty. " Last June, 5438+065438+ 10, when all the onions were still confiscated, dealers and buyers from all over the country went to Wang Huiyun's property and said, "Buy onions!" Eight acres of green onions were snapped up in more than 20 days. Wang Huiyun was at a loss. He has been an onion farmer all his life and has never made so much money at once. "Earn more than a bumper harvest!" In 2006, Wang Huiyun's one mu of real estate was about 8 kg of onions, which sold for less than 3,000 yuan, and the total income of 8 mu of land was less than 20,000 yuan; In 2007, her yield per mu fell to 5 kg, but the price of onion reached 1 10,000 yuan, and the income of 8 mu of land was more than 80,000 yuan. The green onion trade years ago made her feel better. "I have money for my son and wife, so I don't have to worry about it." She also plans to renovate her shabby house in two months. She said, "Everyone who didn't grow onions last year regretted it." From historical lows to historical highs, Wang Yunlei, deputy director of Zhangqiu Agricultural Bureau Office, explained the reasons for this situation. "For the first time in history. Onions were harvested in June 165438+, and 65438+ was basically sold out at the end of February. This is almost a miracle! " It turns out that the high price of onions this year has a historical origin. From June 5438 to/kloc-0 to October 065438, 2006, there was a rare bumper harvest for many years, but unexpectedly, the bumper harvest made the price of green onions as low as the lowest point in recent years. "An average of one or two cents per catty, or even a few cents." After a whole year's hard work, onion farmers can hardly make money without the cost of fertilizer and manpower. After reluctantly accepting the embarrassment of "high yield but no money", onion farmers have tried to find other ways out. After the onion was sold out in 2006, in addition to some traditional onion farmers, some onion farmers planted other vegetables. This has reduced the planting area of Zhangqiu green onions by more than 30,000 mu. The reduction of planting area by onion farmers in the "hometown of onion king" represents the attitude of onion farmers nationwide, which directly led to the substantial reduction of planting area of onion in 2007. Only in Zhangqiu, the four important cities producing green onions, the original 1.2 million mu of green onion land has been reduced to 80,000 mu. In addition to a large-scale reduction in production, "in the autumn of 2007, an important season for the growth and development of green onions, a serious flood disaster occurred in Shandong. The continuous rainy weather has caused many artificially reduced green onions to rot in the ground. As a result, the green onions were passively reduced by at least one third. Finally, a strange scene appeared. There is no need for speculative brokers or intermediaries. Wholesalers all over the country contacted through agricultural cooperatives and went directly to the green onion fields. When the green onions are not finished, they rush to place orders, waiting for the green onion farmers to collect them and load them away. Wang Yunlei said, "Only the production price collected directly from the ground is about two yuan a catty of ordinary quality onions, which are pollution-free and organic. After simple packaging, six yuan a catty off the ground, not negotiable. "It caused the phenomenon of jumping from the lowest point at the end of 2006 to the highest point at the end of 2007. Chain reaction after out of stock This year, the price of green onions reached a record high, and it was also a year when the industrial pattern of green onions was broken. On the afternoon of February 23, Mr. Zhang, an onion farmer in Xiuhui Town, Zhangqiu City, introduced that in previous years, onion people used to "sell" some onions at harvest, and the number of onions could reach up to half of the output. After the Spring Festival next year, the price is slightly higher than the harvest season, and it can be sold around Qingming, basically keeping the vegetable market intact. However, after the onion is harvested, the price is too high for onion farmers to hide. Except for a small part of their own use, they sold everything they could, which is a reversal of the hoarding model. According to the inventory statistics of several onion associations in Zhangqiu, the inventory of Shandong onion farmers is almost "0" at present, and the shortage of goods becomes an inevitable result. The price increase of green onions is not only prominent in China, but also has spread to Japan and other countries. Zhangqiu scallion is an export product mainly supplied by China to Southeast Asian markets. In the case of production reduction, the international buyer's market demand remains unchanged, and the quality requirements for green onions are strict. After the production reduction, the high-quality green onions are busy filling the export gap, making the domestic supply even more scarce. " In the first half of 2007 alone, the domestic export of foreign green onions was 365 12.5 tons, and that of Japan was about 25,000 tons. The latest supply quantity is not counted, but it should be similar to last year. "Wang Yunlei said. Zhangqiu agricultural department vaguely revealed a fact: Shandong onion farmers have no onions in their hands. This has pushed up the price of onions in other onion producing areas in China. In the past two weeks, vegetable wholesale markets in major cities in China, even small onions with average quality, can sell as well as Shandong onions. Beijing Dayang Road Agricultural and Sideline Products Wholesale Market February 23rd Quote: The wholesale price of high-quality green onions is 7 yuan per kilogram, and the general quality is 5 yuan, mainly Hebei green onions. Liu Zhuang vegetable wholesale market in Zhengzhou only has local shallots, and the price is one catty in 4.6 yuan. In addition, the state of dealers grabbing goods far and near and the snowstorm in the south have increased the transportation cost of green onions in many provinces, which is also the reason for the rising price of green onions. In Zhangqiu, the reporter met Liu Zhiming, a dealer from Hunan. He said, "the source of the price increase of green onions lies in the increase in the production price of green onion farmers. After the goods were out of stock, they could not be received in the field. There should still be some goods in Tianjin at present. I am in contact now, hoping to buy more. It doesn't matter if the transportation cost is high, as long as you can stock up some goods and send them out later, you can still make money. "Will the trend of high prices continue? In an interview with Xiuhui Town, a major onion production township in Zhangqiu City, villagers introduced to reporters. " We planted green onions this year. However, it will take at least a few months to buy onions outside. "According to the onion farmers, green onions need to go through two growth periods. The green onions at the end of the first growth period are semi-finished products and will not be available until May. This kind of onion can also be eaten, but it is a "naive" state of green onion. Adult Welsh onion needs to undergo a second growth process similar to cutting, and it will not grow completely until June165438+1October. From 2006 to now, the price of onion has gone from cheap to expensive, and the sales form has gone through two extreme States: from slow sales to out of stock. The change of supply and demand is reflected in the onion price in these two years to the greatest extent. In response to public concern about the price of green onions, the agricultural department believes that onion farmers represented by Zhangqiu are eager to grow green onions. The planting area should increase this year, and the national output is expected to be better than last year. By then, the price of green onions may be cheaper. But at the same time, it revealed, "Now it depends on the situation of onion storage in various places, but no matter how it is stored, the output of onion is not high, the market will only become less and less, and the price may rise. It is estimated that the high price will last until this year's onion harvest 1 1, at least until May, when the semi-finished onion grows. "Similarly, the price of our Henan green onions will not be too low, but it cannot be too high.
