In November, the domestic CPI broke five, and the fruit rose by nearly 30% year-on-year. The reporter visited the Dikou Road fruit wholesale market and some farmers’ markets yesterday. Many fruit sellers stated that excluding the cost increase factors, the fruit farmers were reluctant to sell and local natural disasters caused the fruit production to decline, which was the cause of the high fruit prices this year. .

According to the data released by the National Bureau of Statistics, CPI in November created a new high in 28 months, up 5.1% year-on-year, and fruit prices rose by 28.1%.

Yesterday, in the Jinan embankment fruit wholesale market, whether local apples, pears, papaya, mangoes in Hainan, or dragon fruit or durian imported from Southeast Asia, the price rose by 10% compared to the same period last year. Turned several times.

Taiji Fruit Wholesale, a Taiwanese fruit franchise store manager and manager Wen Yuzhen, said that 1 box of 11 kg of Taiwanese Liu Ding sold 120 yuan at this time, and now it is 150 yuan. The Xaka and Lianwu are also 10% more expensive than last year. Tian Fa fruit manager Cui Yuanzhong said that at the end of October, Hainan papaya was a box of more than 30 yuan, and now it has risen to 95 yuan, and last year before the Spring Festival, the most expensive box of papaya was sold for 40 or 50 yuan. In addition, the mangosteen imported from Southeast Asia was only sold at 1 kilogram when sold at a price of 10 yuan last year, but it is now sold for 35 kilograms per kilogram.

With the increase in fruit prices, besides the increase in planting costs, the sale of fruit growers in the producing areas has become a cause that cannot be ignored. Liu Qingzhong, a wholesaler, said that at this time in the past, Penglai La Apple went directly to the fruit trees for purchase. Only by the Spring Festival will they go to the cold storage. At this time this year, there is no apple in the fruit forest. The fruit grower stored the apple in the cold store early. Some fruit growers did not store an apple in the cold storage for the past ten years, and this year it began to exist.

Wen Yuzhen said that in July this year, Taiwan's Kaohsiung and other places were hit by typhoon and heavy rain, and in July, it was just the flowering period of some fruit trees, which resulted in serious loss of local fruit farmers and a significant drop in fruit production. She had asked for a total of 15,000 kilograms of this year's Liu Ding, but due to small yields, fruit growers only sent her 10,000 kilograms of goods, and the purchase price was also higher than last year. Wen Yuzhen said that this year's severely affected Taiwanese fruits are candied dates, bananas and guava. It is estimated that the prices after listing will also be a lot higher than the same period of last year.

Cui Yuanzhong said that Hainan’s Hurricane and Vietnam’s floods were the main reasons for this year’s increase in the price of fruits such as mangosteen, durian, and dragon fruit.
