[Reporter Zhan Shihong/Yunlin Report] The price of "King of Vegetables" cabbage has plummeted, dragging down the prices of other vegetables. Among them, the price of Fukuyama lettuce, commonly known as "Mainland Girl", is also relatively weak. After the free picking of girls, a place in Huwei also followed up yesterday; the Agriculture Department of Yunlin County Government stated that the price of mainland girls has rebounded, and the overall vegetable price is expected to stabilize in early April.

The weather is getting hotter, vegetables and fruits are growing rapidly, and the supply exceeds demand. Among them, the wholesale price of cabbage is low, which is not enough to cover the cost. For vegetable prices, the central government and the Yunlin County government have stepped up promotions to encourage people to buy more cabbage.

Harvesting wages plus shipping costs do not earn anti-compensation

In addition, the price of mainland girls has also plummeted. The auction price has dropped to 10 yuan per kilogram. The hired labor plus shipping costs do not make a profit and instead compensate. There is a PO article by a vegetable farmer in Huwei, referring to the mainland girls who planted three-point land, because the price is not ideal. , Give up harvesting, the location is Huwei Industrial 1st Street, Lane 153, folks in Huwei area are welcome to go to harvest for free, because the time for land preparation is tight, it will be open until tomorrow, people who go to harvest, please bring your own knives and bags, and pay attention to safety .

Lin Jiaxin, a vegetable farmer, also wrote a PO article, referring to 300 pieces of cooking that he didn't sleep all night, and one piece was "80" yuan. I don't know if it is for sadness or for health.

Cai Gengyu, the deputy director of the Agriculture Department, said that the output of the king of vegetables "caoli" is large. If the price falls, it will affect the price of other leafy vegetables. The average wholesale price has dropped to 7 or 8 yuan per kilogram, and some vegetable farmers have opened their vegetable gardens for the public to harvest for free.

Cai Gengyu pointed out that the wholesale price of Continental Girls in the fruit and vegetable market in Taipei has rebounded, and is about 14 to 15 yuan per kilogram. In addition, the winter vegetable harvest season is coming to an end, and the overall vegetable price is expected to stabilize in early April. .
