Tianjin North Network News:The vegetable basket is closely related to the daily life of ordinary people. In recent days, affected by snowstorm and cold wave, the storage, transportation and price of vegetables have become the focus of public attention. In particular, the prices of some green leafy vegetables have increased the most. The prices of some vegetables have not only exceeded the 10 yuan mark, but some have even "doubled".
farmers’ market
Green leafy vegetables have the biggest increase, and the price of road vegetables has been fine-tuned
Yesterday morning, in the vegetable area of Hongqi Farmers’ Market, there were only over 20 vehicles delivering vegetables. A vendor of wholesale dishes told reporters that this is much more than the previous two days. On the day when it just snowed, only three cars came to deliver vegetables, and the variety of dishes was even pitiful. Spinach, Dutch beans and chrysanthemum were even out of stock. In addition to the difficulty of road traffic caused by heavy snow, the most important thing is that vegetable farmers can’t go to the fields to pick vegetables, and vendors can’t go to the fields to collect vegetables, resulting in high prices. The wholesale price of rapeseed is about 3 yuan per catty, 5.5 yuan per catty of beans and 4.3 yuan per catty of garlic shoots. As for some main dishes, the price increase is not big, such as cabbage and potatoes. The wholesale price of potatoes per catty is around 1.2 yuan, while cabbage is still more than 50 cents per catty.
In the Houtai vegetable market, a female stall owner told reporters that perhaps the number of people eating hot pot increased after heavy snow, so the price of some green leafy vegetables rose the most. Especially for Chrysanthemum morifolium, the price of the last few days was only as high as that of 2 yuan, while the wholesale price after the heavy snow rose to 5 yuan. These dishes are generally afraid of freezing and difficult to preserve, so the selling price per catty has reached 6 yuan money. The price of tomatoes and cucumbers per catty has also reached 5.5 yuan, and the price per catty has generally increased by 1 yuan. However, with the smooth flow of roads, prices will fall.
In the Wangdingdi store in RT Mart, the reporter saw that the vegetables in the vegetable area were very rich, with at least 30 kinds of vegetables on the shelves. From spinach, lettuce, oil wheat, chrysanthemum, chrysanthemum, celery, chives and other green leafy vegetables, to wax gourd, beans, pumpkin, zucchini, cauliflower, potatoes, etc., all of which have been clearly marked. However, the price of fine Dutch beans is as high as 17.9 yuan per catty. The clerk in charge of weighing vegetables told the reporter that the price of vegetables here is updated every day, mainly according to the price fluctuation of incoming goods, which is different from the individual stalls in the bazaar. Their pricing here is strictly in accordance with national regulations to increase the price. If it is increased, it will be punished.

vegetable grower
Do everything possible to ensure the production of vegetables in the market.
Xinkou Town in Xiqing District is an important vegetable production area in this city. The heavy snow and continuous cooling in the past few days have kept vegetable farmers in their respective vegetable fields. Han Baoxiang of Guozhuangzi Village has planted several vegetable greenhouses, not only popular dishes such as cauliflower, cabbage and tomato, but also green leafy vegetables such as spinach and seasonal fruits such as strawberries.
Since the first snow fell, Han provided stayed in the shed almost day and night. "I am afraid that the temperature will drop and the vegetables will be frozen in the ground." Han provided that after he snowed, the first thing was to clear the snow. The first snow was relatively light, and it was quickly cleared up. However, the second snow was relatively heavy, so he specially hired several workers in the labor market and kept clearing the snow, especially the quilts covered with greenhouses. If they were soaked, the heat preservation effect would be greatly reduced. Because the snow is cleared in time, the vegetables in the snow are less frostbitten.
As the saying goes, "it’s not cold when it snows, but it’s cold when it melts." The cold wave these days after snow has a great influence on vegetable production. Han provided has been paying attention to the temperature in the shed these days. "Tomatoes have entered the picking period and are not affected much. The most important thing is strawberries. This time is just the critical period for pollination and fruiting. If the temperature is too low, it will stop growing, so the temperature must be guaranteed. " At about 8 o’clock every morning, Xiao Han will lift the quilt covering the greenhouse and let the sun shine in. When the sun goes down, he will immediately put down the quilt, and the sun absorbed by the land will be released at night.
"In the current low temperature weather, the energy saved and released by the land can only guarantee that the temperature can reach the standard around zero, and it is impossible to keep warm for one night. A small number of vegetables in the shed, such as spinach, are frostbitten near the plastic. " Han provided said. In order to ensure the temperature, Xiao Han will go to the shed to check the temperature every day after zero, and ignite the "warming coal block" at around 2 am to ensure that the temperature in the shed can be connected at around 6 am. "The coldest thing every day is from 2 am to 6 am. If the temperature does not drop at this moment, vegetable production can be guaranteed." Busy Han provided, the daily routine of these days also changes with the weather. (Jin Yun News Editor Liu Ying)
