newspaper Ji'nan July 30th (reporter Ma Yunyun) "hot weather, food rotten too fast!" This is the most widely heard phrase in recent days when journalists visited the wholesale and retail markets of vegetable in provincial capital. Affected by the high temperature, a large number of vegetables rot in the vegetable market of the provincial capital, and many vegetable traders have to dump their rotten vegetables. There are only two tons of vegetable wholesale market in seven Li Bao and Kuang Shan, which produce about 40 tons of vegetable waste a day.
30 at 4 o'clock in the morning, Kuang Shan farm produce wholesale market, rotten vegetables can be seen everywhere. Two young people are throwing rotten celery from the truck. The celery comes from Hebei. Because the temperature is too high, it can't be sold in Ji'nan for two days and it all rotten. They have to throw it away.
two people calculated that these celery had a weight of eight thousand or nine thousand jin, and they lost more than 6000 yuan. Reporters saw the market north of nearly 60 acres of garbage dump, stacked with a lot of rotten Cherry Tomatoes, cabbage and other vegetables. A person in charge of the market surnamed Zhang told reporters that some vegetable vendors dumped the rotten vegetables even to calculate tons of vegetables. The daily vegetable waste produced here is about 20 tons.
10 a.m., Seven Mile Fort vegetable wholesale market, the vegetable merchant Xie sits on the ground to break the rotten cabbage leaf layer by layer. She said that if the new dishes were not cleaned up in time, it would be even harder for them to sell. "Every one hundred pounds of cabbage I sell, I have to throw ten or twenty Jin of rotten leaves."
seven Li Po vegetable wholesale market management office, a person in charge of Li said that the market daily vegetable trading volume of about 2500 tons. Because the rotten vegetable leaves are too many, the market will arrange more than 50 clean workers' shifts every day. Each person should clean five times a day, and the daily cleaning of the rubbish in the market is also up to 20 tons.
is there a good way to avoid losses? Mr. Wei, a vegetable retailer, said that he had a small business and could only rely on controlling the quantity of vegetables he bought to get rid of the dishes before going to the market.
is really a headache for Ms. Ge, who has worked wholesale for 14 years. To ensure sufficient supply of vegetables to clients, she has to pull three cars from Hebei every day. If it is not sold well on one day, she has to cut down the price in order to prevent the food from being rotten in her hands.
