Ginger suffered big "diving" Jiang Nong lost more than 1,500 yuan per mu

Vegetable crops hurt farmers, ginger farmers lost an average of 1,500 yuan per acre above last year's soaring prices of ginger this year encountered a big "diving", origin market wholesale prices from the highest 9.6 yuan / kg plunge to 0.7 yuan / kg, reaching the lowest in nearly 10 years Level. According to the National Agricultural Products (14.71, 0.21, 1.45%) Wholesale Market Information Network of the Ministry of Agriculture, the price of ginger has been declining this year. In October, the average wholesale price of ginger in the national wholesale market was 3.91 yuan/kg, down by 9% from the previous month and down 59.3% year-on-year. %, ginger farmers suffered heavy losses in some areas.

According to a survey conducted by the Shandong Provincial Department of Agriculture, the ginger trading price in the ginger and garlic wholesale market in Anqiu City is 0.8-1.2 yuan/kg, and the lowest price has dropped to 0.7 yuan/kg. The purchase price of ginger in Weifang City's export enterprises is 1.0-1.2 yuan/kg; the leading company's purchase price is slightly higher at the contract price, which is 2.4 yuan/kg.

In fact, the price of ginger has repeatedly returned between soaring and plunging. Judging from the situation in the place of origin, the sharp drop in the price of ginger caused Jiang Nang to lose money. According to estimates by the Shandong Provincial Department of Agriculture, this year's ginger production cost per mu (excluding labor costs) is about 6,000 yuan. According to the current price level, ginger farmers grow at least 1,500 yuan in 1 mu of ginger.

Farmers are blindly expanding their crops under the expected price increase. The supply is excessive. The price plummets Why is the price of ginger so volatile this year?

Analysis of the industry, the oversupply is the main reason for the price plummet. Due to the temptation of rising ginger prices last year, the enthusiasm of farmers in planting ginger this year has been rising. Not only has the main producing areas in Shandong increased planting area, farmers in Henan and Liaoning have begun to grow ginger. In addition, when ginger prices were high last year, some ginger farmers stored large amounts of ginger for sale. This year, prices continued to drop. High-priced ginger could not only be sold at a reasonable price, but also squeezed out the storage capacity of new ginger. According to a survey conducted by the Shandong Provincial Department of Agriculture, Chen Gang’s inventory currently accounts for about 20% of last year’s output. Some ginger farmers can only sell new ginger at low prices because of lack of storage facilities.

In addition to the price of ginger, in recent years, garlic, mung bean, pepper and other crops, which have experienced soaring prices due to hot money speculation, have also encountered significant price cuts. The main reason is that farmers have blindly expanded their crops under the expectations of price increases, and the market is in excess supply, and prices have plummeted. Due to the special nature of agricultural production, the income of farmers is often the lowest when the price of agricultural products rises. At the time of price reduction, the farmers bear most of the losses, and some even lose everything. However, once a certain agricultural product appears to have “price hurts farmers,” it will inevitably lead to a decrease in planting area in the next year, which will lay the foundation for a new round of skyrocketing. Looking at the agricultural and sideline products such as live pigs, Chinese cabbage, potatoes, and garlic in recent years, all this has been interpreted as a tumultuous rise.

The government should not regulate and control when the price of vegetables is high. When the price of vegetables is low, how can the price of agricultural products go out of the turbulent cycle?

Basically, the “small production” of one family is difficult to adapt to the ever-changing “big market”. Decentralized farmers cannot grasp market supply and demand information in a timely and adequate manner. They can only adjust their own market behavior based on the previous round of market conditions and blindly “chasing and selling”. Therefore, we must establish a sound agricultural product market information release platform, give full play to the role of government departments, intermediary organizations, leading enterprises and other aspects, provide farmers with accurate market supply and demand information, carry forward forward-looking analysis of market trends, and guide them according to market needs To arrange production, make adjustments in accordance with the changes in supply and demand.

Secondly, the government’s regulation and supervision should be taken into account in an integrated manner. It should not be implemented only when food prices are high. When the price of vegetables is low, the government should also “sell the shots when they are shot”, introduce relevant control measures, and insist on combining support for production with guaranteed supply. , Effectively safeguard the reasonable income of the farmers. It not only pays attention to the “vegetable basket” of the urban residents, but also pays attention to the farmers’ vegetable garden. It also maintains the basic stability of the agricultural product prices and mobilizes farmers’ enthusiasm for production while safeguarding the livelihood of the urban residents.

Preventing the sudden rise and fall of agricultural products, the most fundamental thing is to stabilize the market from the perspective of production. We should increase the degree of organization of farmers and raise the overall level of industrial development. Encourage farmers to "group in groups" to establish professional cooperatives, give full play to the advantages of large-scale production, and strengthen bargaining power and market risk tolerance. At the same time, we must also establish and improve the supervision and control mechanism. The key is to strengthen the supervision and early warning of agricultural product prices. It is also necessary to reduce the cost of storage and distribution of agricultural products, increase support for the construction of cold storage for agricultural products, improve the “green channel” policy for fresh agricultural products, and actively support the construction of a number of public welfare wholesale markets and affordable shops in the community.
