Shun Net - Ji'nan Daily reporter Zhang Zheng
the weather is becoming hot day by day. On this occasion, how can we reduce the figure of "spicy crayfish" ("Ma Xiao")? Recently, the crayfish began to go on the market in large quantities, but the "price" of the crayfish listed as "the roller coaster", three to 50% compared with last year. In spite of this, the "eat" of the "chasing" of "chasing closure", "Ma Xiao" is still in short supply, although most of the small lobster food and beverage enterprises have not increased prices, but many stores have reflected a bit "can not eat".
crayfish rose "Crazy" this year "
last weekend, who lived near a nearby Hongshan Road to buy vegetables in a nearby supermarket. In the fresh area, love to eat "small" she surprised to find fresh crayfish, but the price of 33 yuan a Jin made her hesitated for half a day, and finally decided to buy two Jin "taste a fresh child".
"I've been doing crayfish for 20 years, and I've never seen a listing so crazy." Shi Yunxia, the owner of the cloud - man lobster near Shui Tun Road, told the reporter that the price of the lobster entered in the store in the last two days was 30-32 yuan, which has just dropped down to 37-38 yuan a week before. In the same period last year, the price of crayfish was only around 20 yuan.
Yao, the manager of Yao Shun barbecue in Huaiyin District, confirmed this statement, saying that the price of crayfish has risen a lot compared with the same period last year. "This time last year it was about 22 yuan per Jin, and now it's up almost half." Yao predicts that the price of crayfish will go up in the peak season of June. But he also said that as long as he can afford to bear, the store "small" is not easy to raise prices, but if the price has been rising, the "small" price increase is also unavoidable.
"(shop)" (shop) customer is to eat 'small', too fast store can not bear, can not have to tell the waiter, persuade customers to little or even don't point 'little', Shi Xia helplessly said, considering the customer's feelings, the price of the store is still 108 yuan (2 jin) and 198 yuan. (4 jin), the price can only be kept in charge. Talking about the reason for the price rise of the crayfish, Shi Yun said that the weather in southern provinces was cold and affected production this year. In March, a large number of listed companies began to go on the market, but this year, it had been dragged to the end of March. At present, the price information of the small lobster is transparent. As the price of the South crayfish is high, some traders will come to Shandong. The price of the crayfish in Weishan Lake and other places will follow the price of "rising water."
the Ji'nan crayfish more than 90% from the foreign
in recent years, the consumption of Ji'nan crayfish has been increasing year by year. "Ma Xiao" has gone from the original "spread culture" to the mass consumption ranks, and the price is also high. The reporter has learned that most of the crayfish on the Ji'nan market come from the field, and the lack of local crayfish makes the price of the crayfish easily affected by the fluctuation of the price of origin.
"most of the crayfish live in the shallow water and the Lake branch. There are not many places in Ji'nan with such natural conditions," Dr. Meng Qinglei, a deputy researcher at the Shandong Freshwater Fisheries Research Institute, told reporters that, according to rough statistics, more than 95% of the crayfish on the Ji'nan market came from the other places, such as the Weishan Lake, Dongping lake and other places in the province. The wild crayfish were mainly produced and the yield was relatively stable. The southern crayfish, which is far away from Ji'nan, has a low survival rate, so it is rare in the market.
Meng Qinglei said that because of the surge in the consumption of crayfish in recent years, many places have begun to use rice fields to breed crayfish, such as Wudi, Gaoqing and Jining, in some places in the province. However, due to the huge demand, these cultured crayfish were mostly digested locally. Although Ji'nan is also a rice producing area, it is not suitable for crayfish to grow.
