The New Year holiday is coming, how about the "food basket" in the capital? On December 27, we visited the Xinfadi market and learned that, with the continuous arrival of southern vegetables in Beijing and the large number of leaf vegetables in Beijing and surrounding areas, the daily market volume of vegetables has continued to exceed 20000 tons since the beginning of winter, and the sufficient supply has made the price of vegetables stable before the festival.
At seven o'clock in the morning, a truck had been parked in the leaf vegetable trading area of Xinfadi. "I was very happy. I started to eat at 8:00 am and 9:00 am the first day. I loaded the car at 3:00 pm. Before 11:30 pm, I left home and pulled more than 300 baskets, 10000 jin." Master Zhang, the merchant, was closing the stall, and there was little rape left.
"The wholesale price of local rape is between 2.3 yuan and 2.4 yuan per kilogram, and it is selling very fast!" Master Zhang said that in 2023, the yield in the field will be good, and their vegetables will be collected in the greenhouses. The fresh vegetables sell well, which is recognized by the wholesalers.
Zhang Yuelin, general manager of Xinfadi Agricultural Products Wholesale Market, said that before New Year's Day every year, the wholesale price of vegetables will have a festival rise, but the weighted average price of vegetables will not rise much in 2023. The leafy vegetables in the greenhouses in Beijing and surrounding areas are concentrated in the harvest period. In addition to a large number of southern vegetables entering Beijing, the daily market volume of vegetables in Xinfadi Market has remained at a high level of 20000 tons since the beginning of winter. The daily market volume reached 25000 tons on December 27, which is the longest high running cycle in recent years. The sufficient supply has blocked the increase of vegetable prices. There was a slight correction once, and the base price of vegetables such as cauliflower, white radish, round lettuce, beans, vegetable peppers, round eggplants, zucchini was even lower than before the blizzard.
Recently, Shandong experienced a cold wave, and some people worried about the supply of vegetables such as cabbage. In this regard, Zhang Yuelin said that at present, Chinese cabbage in Beijing market mainly comes from Hebei and Henan regions, and Shandong Chinese cabbage trade accounts for a small proportion. The regional cold wave has little impact on the vegetable supply in Beijing market.
In the comprehensive trading hall of Xinfadi Market, there is a strong festival atmosphere, and beef, mutton, seafood, chicken and other transactions are hot. With the cold weather and holidays approaching, the demand of citizens for beef, mutton, seafood and chicken is increasing.
"There are more than 1000 mutton on the market every day, with an average price of about 50 yuan per kilogram; there are also 80 or 90 beef, with an average price of about 60 yuan per kilogram; the recent daily market volume of chicken is as high as 23000, with an average price of about 14 yuan per kilogram." Zhang Yuelin said that the products in the comprehensive trading hall are directly supplied by the manufacturers, without intermediate links. In addition to the scale effect of wholesale, the products are fresh Affordable price. After wholesale at night, it will also be sold to the public during the day, which is very popular. During the festival, the comprehensive trading hall of Xinfadi Market and the meat trading market will continue to operate, so that the citizens can enrich their holiday tables. (Sun Ying)
