Xiaoli visited the vegetable field | The price of a large number of watermelons is still strong, but the temperature is still high in the near future.

Yangtze Evening News, June 27 (Reporter Liu Liyuan) "Now the price of watermelon is really a bit high, it is estimated that it will be reduced in more than half a month." In early June, the price of watermelon was high, and the owner of a fruit shop in Nanjing told reporters. But after seeing half a month, the watermelon was listed in large quantities, but the price changed. Say good price reduction? Why is watermelon very expensive? The reporter's investigation found that the "pot" was going to carry the weather.

Seedless melon selling price is high

In a boutique fruit shop in Wuzi, Metropolis watermelon is priced at 8 yuan per catty. Metropolis watermelon is not small. Buying one is tens of yuan. The boss told reporters that the recent wholesale price has dropped a little, but the changes are not too great. The sweetness in the store is very good. You can cut it half to sell it.

There are also relatively affordable melons. In a nearby chain supermarket, 8424 priced at 2.6 yuan per catty, with a medium head. Generally, it can be bought for a whole of more than 20 yuan. "There is a cheap melon, and the price of Wuzi Gua has risen a bit yesterday!" The owner of another cheap fruit shop told reporters that the son 8424 sold 2.8 yuan a pound. It is estimated that the price is difficult to reduce the price in the short term.

At Pukou, the people's melon stalls were set up again by the urban management department. Most of these melon stalls were transported directly from Tiantou. The cost was low. The reporter asked a family. Jack is really cheaper than supermarkets and fruit stores.

The reporter learned from the Nanjing Agricultural and Sideline Products Logistics Center that the average wholesale price of watermelon on June 27 was 2.9 yuan per kilogram, and on June 12, half a month ago, the average price was 3.3 yuan per kilogram, and the price was not great. Agricultural and sideline logistics staff told reporters that the current melon on the market mainly comes from several places such as northern Jiangsu, Anhui and Shandong, of which northern Jiangsu has the largest amount. The watermelon that was listed in the late morning was mainly based on the watermelon of the Northeast production area that was transported long -distance, and the amount of goods was relatively stable. Affected by the rise in fertilizer, logistics, and labor costs, the overall price of watermelon has risen in recent years. In addition, the price of watermelon is significantly affected by the weather. When the weather is good, it is expensive, and it is cheap when the weather is poor. Although it has been entered in the near future, it has rarely rainfall, which is also an important reason for the high price of watermelon.
