Langya News Network NewsIn winter, strawberries, cherries and other fruits have been on the market one after another, which are favored by consumers. Recently, "Strawberry ** Big Dive" and "Fruit Thorn Cherry" have been on the hot search one after another. Compared with last year, the value of strawberries and cherries has changed greatly this year.

On December 20, the reporter randomly visited a number of supermarkets, fruit stores and picking gardens in Hedong District, Linyi City, and found that strawberries did decline, while cherries climbed and became "fruit assassins" again.

Down!

14-30 yuan Jin strawberries** has decreased

Recently, the strawberries of large chain supermarkets such as Kyushu supermarkets have declined, and compared with previous years, they are nearly thirty percent cheaper. There are different varieties of strawberries on the shelves in an orderly manner, and ** are not the same: Ningyu strawberries are 149 yuan catty, Miaoxiang strawberry is 159 yuan catty, fragrant wild strawberry is 229 yuan catty.

The reporter then visited a number of individual fruit stores. In the Baiguo Fresh Fruit Store of Sanguanmiao Farmers' Market in Hedong District, the ** of cream strawberries also ranges from 16 yuan to 18 yuan per catty, and the pink and tender light snow strawberries are ** 30 yuan per catty. Liu Jianrui, the owner of the store, said that the 18 yuan jin of strawberries in the store could be sold for 25 yuan a pound in previous years. This year's strawberries are indeed cheaper than in previous years, but they are not as exaggerated as "halved". "The strawberries in our store are mainly divided by size and packaging, and the weather is warmer after winter this year, and the strawberries taste better. As the weather gets colder, strawberries** should pick up somewhat. She said.

Affected by the weather and the market, the number of strawberries planted by cooperatives in Bahu Town, Hedong District has also decreased compared with previous years. The taste of fragrant wild strawberries is very good, last year it cost 30 yuan catty, and this year's delivery price is about 20 yuan catty;Last year's 20 yuan catty nine-spice strawberry, the current delivery price is 14-15 yuan catty;Alliance strawberries were 18 yuan last year, but this year it has dropped to 16 yuan.

The reporter learned that the strawberry maturity period in Bahu Town is earlier than that of Junan County, and a large number of strawberries in Junan County will be listed in a few days, and it is expected that there will be a small fluctuation. "With the sudden drop in temperature in the past two days, the overall strawberry has risen, and the current market demand is still greater than the first amount. If strawberries** continue this upward trend, it is expected that strawberries** will be similar to previous years around the Chinese New Year. Mr. Zhao, a strawberry farmer in Bahu Town, told reporters.

It's up!

60-200 yuan catty cherries become "fruit assassins" again

Cherries and strawberries are undoubtedly the "darlings" of winter fruits, in addition to being listed in large quantities a year ago, these two fruits also have one thing in common: they are a little distressed when they start, after all, they are expensive. On one side, the strawberries have declined, while on the other hand, the cherries have continued to climb.

The reporter visited and found that the cherries in the fruit chain store were high, and the price of the A fruit cherries in the rain and dew space was 998 yuan 250g;The JJ-class is priced at 728 yuan 250g;The J-grade is priced at 658 yuan 250g;Fruit Fresh Hero, Fruit Colorful and other fruit stores cherries range from 80 yuan to 150 yuan according to different sizes and grades.

The reporter learned in a number of fruit stores in the Junlian Agricultural Trade that because JJJ and JJ-grade cherries are too expensive and the sales volume is relatively low, many shopkeepers will prefer single J-grade cherries when purchasing, which is more cost-effective. The single-grade J-grade cherries placed in the fruit store are priced at 50 yuan to 60 yuan catty. It is worth noting that this ** is higher than the vast majority of imported fruits such as durian and avocado, but it has not reached the "sky-high price".

Ms. Liu, the owner of the fresh orchard fruit shop, told reporters that last year's warm winter climate led to a decrease in the spring flowering of Chilean cherries, and the yield was only 50% of that of previous years. In addition, the rising cost of logistics is also one of the reasons for ***. "Chilean cherries are generally transported to the Chinese market by air, which is fast, but the cost is high and the quantity is small, so the price is higher. Later, shipping cherries will be listed on a large scale, and as the arrival volume increases, ** will decline. ”

**Fall or rise

Upgrading fruit consumption is the trend of the times

From the well-known strawberries and cherries, to all kinds of popular "Internet celebrity fruits", although the value is extraordinary, there will always be people who pay for various premiums. In the past, people asked for more "eat it", but now many people ask for "eat well".

If you pay close attention to observation, you may find that whether it is a supermarket, a fruit store, or a fruit stall in the market, all kinds of fruits are beautifully packaged, and fruit "grading" has become the general trend. Corresponding to such a "consumption upgrade", it has brought about the transformation of retail channels, and the display category has obviously shown a trend of mid-to-high-end. The same is Fuji apple, and those with a diameter of 85 mm or more are more expensive than those with a diameter of 70-84 mm.

Take cherries as an example, according to the different diameters, they are divided into J, JJ, JJJ, JJJJ grades, and according to different color, taste and ripeness, they are divided into A-grade fruits and B-grade fruits, and different grades of fruits correspond to different **. In addition, common fruits such as Ehime oranges and cantaloupe also have different "grades".

In the past, we went to the market to hand-pick, and the fruit** may be cheaper, but at the same time, it also means that the quality is uneven. Now, due to the grading of fruits, merchants screen out the "problem products" in advance, and the quality of the fruits in the hands of consumers will be improved.

As fruit grading has become an inevitable trend, high-quality "boutique fruits" are more popular in the market. The reporter saw that the fruit shop in the farmers' market also packaged high-quality strawberries, cherries and other fruits and placed them in a conspicuous position in the store. "As ordinary consumers, we can't afford to eat high-end imported 4J cherries, so we can choose relatively affordable strawberries and buy a box of romantic red faces, which can also be eaten sweetly. Mr. Gao, who is buying strawberries, said.
