The price of crayfish as low as 10 yuan / jin is the main reason for the "diving" crowded listing compared with the same period last year.

[as low as 10 yuan / jin crayfish price is the main reason for the year-on-year "diving" crowded listing] June 8, a reporter from the Financial Associated Press recently went to Qianjiang, Xuyi, Changsha, Nanjing and other places to investigate and learned that since May Day, the price of crayfish in the main producing areas in China has plunged sharply, with the specification price of 2-4 yuan as low as 10 yuan per jin, which is not only more than halved from the high point in March. And there is a 20% to 30% "discount" compared with the same period last year. The sharp drop in shrimp prices is mainly due to the entry of rice transplanting season in the Yangtze River basin, the concentrated effluent of shrimp in rice fields, and the low temperature in the first quarter of this year, which delayed the harvest time of some lobsters, resulting in crowded listing. In terms of consumption, the industry said that offline catering has not yet returned to the pre-epidemic level, while online shopping for fresh food, food takeout and prepared dishes have increased significantly. At present, Meituan takeout platform has sold more than 99000 kinds of crayfish dishes, and the number of related merchants has increased by nearly 70% compared with the same period last year. Due to the reduction in the price of raw materials, the gross profit of crayfish products from prefabricated vegetable manufacturers such as Anjing Food and Guolian Aquatic products is expected to rise.
