Every year, more than 12 million tons of fruit suffer losses due to unsalable fruits in China, and the economic loss is more than 400 billion yuan. This is a staggering figure, and one has to wonder why Chinese fruit is so difficult to sell that no one even wants to throw it in the garbage
With the development of China's economy and the improvement of people's living standards, the fruit market has been showing a thriving scene. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, in 2022 alone, the total production of fruits in our country reached 31,296240,000 tons, the world's first. As a result, the per capita fruit share in the country reached 22168 kg, it can be seen that people's demand for fruit is considerable. The fruit output of Guangxi, Shandong, Henan, Shaanxi and Guangdong ranks among the top five in the country.
Surprisingly, however, there is a disturbing truth behind the high fruit production. According to the news, it is reported that in 2022, China's fruit exports reached a staggering 593.9 billion US dollars, while the import value is as high as 145$4.4 billion!This figure can't help but raise people's questions, is it that China's fruits are unsalable, do we still have to import?Isn't it a bit too flattering?
It is undeniable that some people always feel that foreign products are better than China, especially foreign fruits are regarded as synonymous with "high and high". People always think that as long as they eat imported fruits, they can fly up the branches like a phoenix. But is that really the case?
Let's analyze it with expertise. First of all, it is an indisputable fact that domestic fruit production remains high. But at the same time, the quality of domestic fruits is getting better and better, and the improvement of planting technology, packaging and transportation has greatly improved the quality of domestic fruits. In fact, our domestic fruits are often superior to some imported fruits in terms of taste, such as bayberry, red pomelo, etc., which are superb in both taste and quality.
Secondly, China's climate and soil conditions are ideal for fruit cultivation. The planting area of fruit trees in northern China is vast, and fruit planting, including apples and pears, has achieved a bumper harvest. At the same time, the fruits in the southern region are mainly tropical fruits, such as mango, pineapple, longan, etc. These diverse fruits can meet the needs of different consumers in terms of quality and taste.
Finally, the domestic fruit industry chain has been established, and there is a complete standardized process from planting to processing to sales. This not only ensures the freshness and quality of the fruit, but also provides employment opportunities and economic growth. Seizing this opportunity can not only promote patriotism, but also promote the development of the domestic fruit industry.
Back to the original question, why is China's fruit so unsalable that no one even throws it in the garbage?The reason may be that people ignore the advantages and value of domestic fruits in the face of more and more abundant fruit varieties. At the same time, we cannot deny that some people advocate the mentality of imported fruits, and always think that foreign fruits are better. This also makes the domestic fruit industry face a "Made in China" dilemma, overcapacity, unsalable problems.
However, we should understand that while the imported fruit market is booming in China, our domestic fruits also have an advantage and are even better in quality. More importantly, supporting domestic fruits is not only to support domestic brands, but also to support the development of China's industry.
