What is the reason for the high price of fruit? The price of some fruits in the market has been ridiculously high this year. In fact, the causes are very simple and clear. The strange phenomenon of rising fruit prices is caused by climate change, natural disasters, market itself and so on.
First, due to climate change caused by large and small years
Everyone familiar with agriculture knows that the output of agricultural products has a great relationship with the size of the year. As for the output of agricultural products, the year is caused by abnormal climate change, which is difficult for human beings to control. Therefore, a certain kind of fruit has a bumper harvest in the new year, with high output and sufficient supply in the market, and even causes unsalable, leading to a decline in price; The output of a certain fruit has been reduced due to small years. The output is very low, and the market supply is insufficient, resulting in supply exceeding demand, leading to a sharp rise in price. This year, there are many fruits. In different production areas, in small years, the output has decreased greatly, resulting in a shortage of goods, less supply than demand and higher prices.
Second, it is caused by fruit products in untimely seasons
At present, many fruits on the market are not produced in this season. Most of them are out of season fruits stored with advanced equipment last year, or imported from distant overseas suitable producing areas. This is because the fruit products retained in the inventory last year need to use advanced equipment, spend a lot of manpower, and consume a lot of storage materials and energy, resulting in rising product costs and high prices; Imports from distant producing areas need to go through layers of middlemen to increase prices, import tariffs and fees, packaging, storage and transportation costs, which increase the cost of fruits and lead to price increases.
Third, the output decreased due to the impact of natural disasters
In addition to the influence of different years, this year's fruit has also encountered extreme weather changes, that is, the influence of natural disasters, such as cold in late spring, drought, hail, storm in the flowering and fruiting period, which has greatly reduced the fruit output this year, resulting in less market supply and rising prices.
Fourth, it is caused by unreasonable profit distribution of fruits
The price of fruit is high, and the income of fruit growers is not necessarily high. Growers generally buy fruits directly from middlemen, through packaging, storage, transportation and wholesale, and then sell them at the counter. The price increases layer by layer, and the water rises, resulting in higher and higher prices. The middle price difference between the selling price of growers and the selling price on the counter is several times of the selling price of growers. Therefore, most of the profits of fruit products are obtained by middlemen, resulting in unfair and unreasonable distribution of product profits. As a result, growers increase production without increasing income, middlemen make huge profits by borrowing funds, and consumers pay in full. This is the main reason for the high price of fruit this year.
