This year, bayberry was listed particularly early. According to the relevant person in charge of Ningbo fruit wholesale market, according to the convention, Yunnan bayberry is generally listed in March, and this year's listing time is half a month earlier than in previous years. As early as before the Lantern Festival, the bayberry in Shiping County, Honghe Hani and Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan Province has matured and gone on the market, and the "flying" has come to the largest "fruit plate" market in Yongcheng. When it was first listed, the wholesale price of early-maturing bayberry exceeded 200 yuan per catty, and recently it has fallen back to about 133 yuan per catty.

It is understood that Yunnan bayberry arrives at Ningbo Fruit Wholesale Market at 2 a.m. every day. At present, the market does not arrive in a large amount every day, about 100 boxes, and buyers generally book in advance, and they are almost sold at the morning every day. The first batch of bayberry on the market is not large in size and has a sweet and sour taste. At a wholesale price of $133 per catty**, the average wholesale price of bayberry is about $3, and the retail price may double.
The reporter learned from the interview that around March 10, Yunnan early-maturing bayberry began to be listed on a large scale, and the wholesale price is expected to drop to 60 yuan to 70 yuan per catty.

If you want to eat cheaper bayberry, you can wait for the end of March to be listed on a large scale in Yunnan Dongkui and other varieties of bayberry and Fujian early-maturing bayberry. Due to the large production volume and low transportation costs, the wholesale price will naturally drop a lot.
After mid-May, Fujian bayberry will also be listed in large quantities, and it will be cheaper.
As for when will the local bayberry be listed? The relevant person in charge of the Ningbo fruit wholesale market said that the local bayberry is expected to be on the market until the end of May and the beginning of June. For some consumers who recognize local bayberry, one word is "wait".
