The price of sugar was rising from the Mid Autumn Festival last year, and now the price of each ton has reached more than 6000 yuan. During the interview, a Hu family official at a food factory in the provincial capital admitted to reporters that there were also many kinds of raw materials prices floating up from 10% to 30%. In fact, the rise in raw material prices is only one reason for the rise in the price of zongzi.
