Multi -land hairy crabs are not completely mature yet

"Now in the country's market, most of the hairy crabs in the production areas have not been fully mature." Shan Shan (pseudonym) from Wuhu, Anhui Wuhu told reporters.

According to Shanshan, the high temperature duration of this summer is very long, and the rain is less, resulting in hairy crabs do not like to "eat" slowly. "Entering the last molting period of hairy crabs in mid -August each year, it is only a crab to complete this molting. But since August, the high temperature in Jiangsu and Zhejiang region has made this shelling this time not smooth."

The impact of high temperature weather, coupled with the early Mid -Autumn Festival, "Hairy crabs listed before the Mid -Autumn Festival this year, especially those with large specifications, are much less than in previous years." Shan Shan said.

As for the high -quality Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs, according to media reports, due to the late production areas such as maturity and the late production areas of Hongze Lake, "it is yes to keep up with the Mid -Autumn Festival." The former "small batch listing" is also basically hopeless. This year, Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs are expected to be listed on October 15.

In a vegetable market in Xicheng District, Beijing, hairy crabs are priced at 30 yuan each. "The closer to the Mid -Autumn Festival, the more expensive the price will be," the merchant told reporters.

Several hairy sellers said that affected by the gifts of the Mid -Autumn Festival, the prices of hairy crabs will be more expensive before the Mid -Autumn Festival. The market supply has become less expensive this year, and the price will only be more expensive.

A hairy crab seller from Gucheng Lake, Jiangsu revealed to reporters that the price of hairy crabs may double than before this year.

"High temperature not only allows the hairy crabs to be released after shelling, but also allows the water plants in the lake to accelerate rotting, which affects the breeding environment. Although the crab farmers use the oxygen to oxygen in the water, in the high temperature weather, it will still lose some of the" minors. 'Hairy crabs. "Shanshan predicts," Because the production of crabs this year is affected, even when it is completely mature in the later period, if there are no other factors, the price will be more expensive than the year.

Fat Mei Crab is difficult to go to the Mid -Autumn Festival dining table

As hairy crabs are generally mature, the reporter noticed that in addition to the small amount and high price, many consumers also reflect that many crabs are not fat.

"High temperature and rain in July and August delayed the shelling and growth of hairy crabs. It should be delayed to be listed according to the reason. However, this year it was listed in advance because of the Mid -Autumn Festival. The quality of the crab can be imagined."

On the Consumer Service Platform Black Cat complaint, the reporter searched for "crab card" and showed thousands of complaints. The complaint content was concentrated in "after buying a crab card, and the merchant cannot be contacted and unable to pick up the goods."

For example, some consumers report that in September 2020, a crab card with 3888 hairy crabs was purchased in September 2020, which is valid for the three crab season from 2020 to 2023. The appointment was made in 2020 and 2021. During the delivery time period, the appointment was prompted. Now it is found that online stores have disappeared. WeChat piches can not open the appointment interface. The public account of the merchant shows that it has been sold.
