National Day is approaching, it is the peak consumption season, is the market supply sufficient? How do vegetable prices, meat prices, and egg prices perform? What measures have been taken to stabilize prices? Our reporter recently visited the agricultural supermarkets in some cities
.

Vegetable and egg prices were generally stable

At 7:00 a.
m.
on September 26, the Huadalung Xinlinghai Market in Shantou City, Guangdong Province, was already crowded
.
This is the largest local vegetable market, bringing together all kinds of vegetables, meat and meat products, eggs, local snacks and pasta, etc.
, the sound of vendors and residents asking for prices are intertwined, and the fireworks are full of
fireworks.

In front of Boss Li's egg stall, Aunt Zhang, who lives nearby, is hesitating: 7.
5 yuan / kg of grass eggs on the ground, 7.
9 yuan / kg of Chia Tai fresh eggs, 8 yuan / kg of black chicken eggs, 6.
5 yuan / kg of ordinary eggs .
.
.
"There are too many types, I don't know which one to
choose.
" Aunt Zhang said, "Usually my old man comes out to buy vegetables, but today he went to help his son.
"
The price of these eggs is not much different, but the overall price seems to have
increased.
”

Boss Li told reporters that the price of eggs has fluctuated greatly
in the past month.
On August 22, an egg (30 dozen eggs for one piece) was 226 yuan, and in early September it was 252 yuan a piece, and now it is about stable at this price
.
"Overall, the average price of all varieties of eggs fluctuates
around 6.
5 yuan a catty to 8 yuan a catty.
" Boss Li said, "The most expensive thing my family sells is black chicken eggs, which have high nutritional value; But the best sold is this kind of grass egg, the price is centered, and the taste is delicious
.
"At the recommendation of Boss Li, Aunt Zhang finally picked two and a half pounds of grass eggs
.
" It's almost National Day, and my daughter is coming
home.
She likes to eat the steamed eggs I made the most, and I have to prepare them
in advance.
Aunt Zhang said
.

"The holidays are approaching and the overall price of vegetables and eggs feels slightly higher
.
" Mr.
Zhang of Shenzhen told reporters that he usually goes to the vegetable wholesale market to buy vegetables, and the average price of vegetables is about 2 to 3 yuan
.
"The price of broccoli, green beans, etc.
will be higher, 4 to 5 yuan per kilogram, and the street market near the residential area will be more expensive, about 20% to 30%
more expensive.
" Mr.
Zhang said, "In addition to the factors that the holiday is approaching, the main thing is that it is greatly
affected by the weather conditions.
A few more typhoons, the price of vegetables can double
.
”

Mr.
Qiu of Shantou City said: "The price of vegetables in the market changes every day, with a floating range of about 1% to 3%.

He told reporters that due to the climate, season and harvest, vegetable prices will suddenly increase significantly, which is also a normal phenomenon
in the short term.

In Beijing Happy Glory Fresh Supermarket, the price of broccoli is 5.
8 yuan / catty
.
"The most expensive should be the cucumber, 13.
8 yuan a pound
.
" Ms.
Wang, a supermarket tally clerk, told reporters, "The rest of the vegetables that consumers often buy, such as small rapeseed, round lettuce, round eggplant, tomatoes, bitter melons, cucumbers, etc.
, are three or five yuan a pound
.
" After the Mid-Autumn Festival a while ago, vegetable prices fell
significantly.
In the past week, the price of vegetables has risen slightly, but the increase is not obvious, less than 1 yuan a catty, and the overall is relatively stable
.
”

According to the weekly market dynamics of the Xinfadi wholesale market in Beijing, the price of vegetables fell significantly
from September 10 to September 17.
Liu Tong, head of the Xinfa Geostatistics Department, analyzed that this is partly because the previous price is too high, which has reserved a large space for the decline in vegetable prices, and on the one hand, because the recent meteorological conditions are relatively ideal, which is conducive to the growth
of vegetables.
In the later period, with the successive listing of autumn vegetables, there is still a certain room for price decline, and vegetable prices may enter a seasonal decline range
.

Meat prices rose slightly

The weather is getting cooler, and the National Day is coming, and many consumers in Beijing have
begun to "paste autumn fat".
What is the price of meat across the country recently?

On September 25, the reporter saw in a supermarket in Beijing that pork pork belly was about 32.
8 yuan / kg, front tip meat was 24.
8 yuan / kg, and pure ribs were 39.
9 yuan / kg
.
"The black pork that my family usually buys is about 50 yuan a catty, and the price changes little
.
" Pork prices rose a bit this week, but overall within acceptable ranges
.
Ms.
Xu, who came to buy vegetables, said, "The weather is getting colder, in addition to pork, I also plan to buy more beef and mutton and eat
it at home.
" ”

In Shenzhen, the price of pork belly is about 20 yuan a catty, which is a big
difference from Beijing.
"In the past month, meat prices should have been affected by the pig cycle, with a slight increase
.
" Mr.
Zhang said, "If the price will increase and the price is more expensive in the future, I will choose to buy beef and mutton
.
" ”

In Shanghai, the comprehensive Carrefour supermarket, Bu Bee Lotus supermarket, Dong'an farmers market, Miyun farmers market and many other market prices, the average price of pork pork belly is about 40 yuan a catty
.
In Shantou, pork belly is divided into pork from other places and pork from the local Chenghai area, and the price is slightly different
.
"Taking local pork as an example, the price has risen from 14 to 15 yuan a catty to 18 to 20 yuan a catty in a month, an increase of about 10% to 20%, and foreign pork is
slightly lower.
" Mr.
Qiu said
.

According to the data of the National Bureau of Statistics, the monitoring of the market prices of 50 important means of production in 9 categories in the national circulation field shows that compared with the beginning of September, the prices of 30 products rose, 17 declined, and 3 were flat
.
Among them, the price of live pigs (outer ternary) was 23.
7 yuan / kg, up 0.
9%
month-on-month.
Previous data showed that in early September, the price of live pigs (outer three yuan) was 23.
5 yuan / kg, up 4.
4%
month-on-month.

On September 19, Meng Wei, spokesman of the National Development and Reform Commission, introduced that since the beginning of this year, domestic pig prices have experienced a process of falling first and then rising, and have recently fluctuated in the range of 22-24 yuan per kilogram; The price ratio of pig food in the latest week was 8.
38:1, which is on the upper edge
of the reasonable range of 6:1 to 9:1 determined by the pork reserve plan.

What are the reasons for the increase in pork prices?

Liu Tong analyzed that after the Mid-Autumn Festival, although meat consumption briefly entered the off-season, the expectations of farms for pig prices did not cool, and pig prices and meat prices remained firm
.

For the late pig market supply and demand and price situation, recently, the National Development and Reform Commission Price Department has organized in-depth analysis and judgment of relevant parties for many times, and all parties have analyzed that the current stock of breeding sows, newborn piglets and fattening pigs has continued to rise, coupled with the acceleration of the growth rate of fattening pigs after the weather turns cool, and the frozen meat inventory of enterprises is at a high level, most of which will supply the market within the year, so the supply of pig pork market in the future period of time is guaranteed, and the price is difficult to continue to rise
sharply.

Since September, as of the 27th, the Ministry of Commerce has worked with the National Development and Reform Commission to carry out three times of central reserve meat storage, and some provinces have also carried out the storage of reserve meat, and it is expected that the reserve will reach 200,000 tons
this month.
"This sends a relatively clear signal that meat prices do not have the conditions for
a sharp increase.
" Liu Tong said, "Previously, the production of wool pigs has always been regulated by the 'invisible hand' on the market, and there is a 'visible hand' in this round of the market that also participates in the regulation, that is, to 'cut the peak and fill the valley' to prevent the fluctuation of meat prices from fluctuating, which is a strong guarantee
for the healthy, stable and balanced development of the breeding industry.
" ”

Guarantee supply and stable prices without relaxing

"Of course I hope the price of the dish is as low as possible
.
" Mr.
Zhang said, "It's almost the festival, and it's normal for the price of vegetables and meat to rise, as long as it doesn't go up all the time
.
" ”

Boss Li wants egg prices to stabilize at current levels
.
"There are always ups and downs, and our farmers have no bottom
in their hearts.
" Boss Li said, "The follow-up egg price should not be 'big dive', I think it is more ideal to rise steadily
.
" ”

"Ensuring the supply and stable price of important people's livelihood commodities is related to the basic livelihood of the masses and is a very important task
.
" Meng Wei said, "With the National Day approaching, the demand for important people's livelihood commodities such as vegetables and pork is booming, and the unfavorable factors such as the multi-point spread of the domestic epidemic and the occurrence of heavy rainfall in some places are facing certain pressures
.
" ”

What measures will be taken to stabilize prices?

Meng Wei said that the National Development and Reform Commission will, on the basis of keeping a close eye on the supply and demand situation of important people's livelihood commodities such as vegetables and pork, further consolidate the "vegetable basket" mayor responsibility system, and supervise and guide all localities to take various ways to strengthen production, release reserves, market supervision and other ways to effectively ensure supply and stabilize prices:

The first is to guide all localities to pay close attention to vegetable production, strengthen the connection between production and marketing, smooth transportation and distribution, and ensure the smooth "microcirculation" of the terminal market and sufficient
market supply.
Measures such as affordable sales, subsidies for circulation and sales links, and reduction or exemption of wholesale market entry fees are adopted to promote the smooth operation of
prices.

The second is to release the central pork reserve in a timely manner, guide all localities to increase their efforts to simultaneously release local government pork reserves, and the price is lower than the market price, so as to ensure the stable operation
of the pig pork market supply and price.
At the same time, we will guide all localities to put into reserve of finished grain and oil, vegetables, eggs and other reserves in a timely manner to increase market supply
.

The third is to encourage key backbone enterprises to adhere to honest management, take the lead in ensuring supply and price stability, and coordinate relevant departments to severely crack down on illegal and illegal acts
such as collusion in price increases and price gouging.

"Judging from the operation of the market, the relevant policies and measures have achieved positive results, and the prices of finished grain and oil have been basically stable recently, the prices of vegetables and eggs have fallen, and the prices of pork have generally been running
smoothly.
" Meng Wei said, "In the follow-up, we will continue to track the market situation of important people's livelihood commodities, further consolidate the responsibilities of local entities, promote the implementation of relevant measures, ensure adequate market supply and overall price stability, and create a good price environment
for the masses to celebrate the festival.
