after the May 1 holiday, garlic bolt has been listed, and many garlic merchants once again turn their attention to garlic bolt. The reporter learned that, as the garlic bolt production is low this year, and many foreign businessmen competing to buy, the new garlic bolt purchase price is about 1.7 yuan, nearly 40% higher than the same period last year.
more than 1 pm on 5 days, many vegetable traders and garlic farmers carrying garlic scrolls gathered in the market of Nan Dian Zi, Jinxiang County, and waited for the transaction. "Sell well, many customers are rushing to collect, 1.7 catties sold." The garlic farmer Wang Zhiguo of Chen Lou, Ma Temple Town, Jinxiang County, opened a motorized tricycle to the market soon, and the thousand jin of garlic sprouts on the car were sold out. "The price is good, the yield is low, three hundred jin of garlic sprouts are out of one mu, and the length is also uneven."
more than 2 p.m., at the entrance of the international garlic trading market, many large trucks do not load. "New garlic bolt has just come into the market, and many garlic traders from Hebei and Cangshan have come to snap up. Yesterday, a customer in Cangshan asked for 6 cars and sent nearly 200 tons of garlic sprouts." Li Peng, the manager of a logistics company in the garlic international market, told reporters that the new garlic sprouts have just come on the market this year.
Liu Zhenhua, who has been in the garlic business for more than 10 years, said that yesterday was his first day of garlic bolt, and the purchase price of the day was also changing with the volume of the market. In less than two hours, the purchase price dropped by 1 yuan from 1.75 yuan at noon. But by four or five p.m., with the decrease in garlic stocks on the market, prices rebounded again. "Yesterday, the three of us collected 3 cars of garlic bolt, a total of 17 thousand catties, and sold it to garlic merchants in the evening." Liu Zhenhua said, this year a lot of garlic farmers have reflected that the production of garlic bolt is lower than in previous years, also attracted a lot of foreign businessmen to come to buy, the fish mountain market and South store sub market also once appeared traffic congestion. Compared with last year, the local garlic merchants' wait-and-see mood has been reduced this year.
for this year's market, many people in the industry say that with the large area of garlic sprouts going on the market this week, the price of garlic sprouts will drop.
