Fresh corn sells for 10 yuan and one spike. Is the price high?

Not long ago, a 6 yuan vacuum packaged fresh corn produced in a certain place sold by a live broadcast room on the Internet, which caused widespread discussion among netizens. Some people think that the price is high, and some people care about how much money growers can make from them.

In fact, the individual vacuum packaging of some brands has previously sold 10 yuan a spike. Fresh corn is priced so much that there are roughly the following reasons.

Relatively scarce. Fresh corn generally refers to fresh corn ears or seeds that are harvested and processed when the corn grain taste is the best, and vacuum sterile packages are usually adopted. Although my country's corn production is large, fresh corn is mainly available before the harvest. The best harvest period is short. If you want to keep fresh for a long time, you need to store it in the cold storage. It is necessary to rely on artificial harvesting, and it is difficult for small farmers to plant large areas. In winter, its relatively scarce characteristics are particularly prominent. Supply and demand affects prices, and the price of fresh corn will be relatively higher.

The added value is high. Different from the primary products of corn ears after simply peeled, fresh corn purchased online often go through cutting, cleaning, plastic installation, cooking and other procedures, including more labor, packaging, warehousing, logistics and other costs. There is a corresponding manifestation in the price of the product. There are many types of fresh corn of some brands, and the technology content has added to the product pricing again.

brand effect. It is also a fresh -packed fresh corn. The price of large brands is often higher than small and medium -sized brands. This is the value of the brand. Large brands often mean higher quality and stronger reliability. The control of quality and quality requires corresponding investment, which will naturally increase the price to a certain extent. This is fully reflected in many fields such as clothing, luggage, and rice, and most people can understand. Why not take the same attitude for fresh corn?

In summary, as a fresh food that needs to be consumed as non -rigid, the current price is an objective result formed by various factors based on various factors, and it is a concrete manifestation of the market's decisive role in resource allocation. Moreover, the price has a conduction effect, and the farmers or base workers on the planting end also benefit from it to a certain extent. As for what level its price is in order to make more consumers feel more reasonable, and it will not make producers unpredictable, I am afraid that it still needs to be answered by the market. If there are more and more participants in planting, processing, and sales, the market competition is becoming more and more fully adjusted, and the price of fresh corn terminals will continue to make corresponding adjustments.

Discussing such topics once again made people realize the importance of agricultural industrialization and product branding for promoting rural revitalization and driving farmers' income. The dried corn kernels can be sold for more than 1 yuan. The ordinary fresh corn is priced at one or two yuan. It is refrigerated and stored in a vacuum packaging. The agricultural industrialization of the local area not only increases employment, but also makes growers and processing enterprises profit from it. This revelation that relevant departments in various places, whether they are adjusting and optimizing the planting structure, or using the two production and three production and three industrial chains, they should fully tap the added value of the agricultural field and strive to leave more value -added income in the industry in the countryside more in the countryside. Corresponding to farmers to promote farmers' income and promote rural revitalization through the high -quality development of rural industries.
