China Central Television, Beijing, May 2 (Reporter Lv Hongqiao) According to a report by the Voice of Economy of China Central Radio and Television Station, "World Finance and Economics", the "May 1st" holiday is generally a peak consumption period. What are the changes in the prices of various commodities for people's livelihood?

The Voice of Economy learned from the market that the prices of agricultural and sideline products such as pork, eggs, vegetables, and fruits have risen and fallen, and the overall operation has been stable.

And some products with relatively high prices in the past, such as crayfish, etc., the price has plummeted.

　　During the "May Day" holiday this year, the price of live pigs has generally rebounded in various places, and the price of pork has risen steadily.

The reporter learned from many farmers' markets across the country that the supply of white striped pigs is sufficient, and pork consumption is picking up.

Some merchants said: "A region is the same, pork in our region is 10 yuan, 11 yuan, 12 yuan per pound. Because these days belong to the "May Day" small holiday, so the pull of pork consumption, the increase in pork prices is still With certain support, the price of white striped pigs has been rising steadily these days."

　　At present, the purchase price of live pigs in some places has exceeded 8 yuan per catty, and farmers have been close to breakeven from the previous deep losses, and some farmers with better cost control can still achieve profitability.

Wang Zuli, an associate researcher at the Institute of Agricultural Economics and Development of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, believes that the current supply and demand of pork is changing. On the whole, the market is entering a trending upward range, and the price of pigs may continue to fluctuate upwards.

Wang Zuli said: "Generally from May onwards, our pork consumption demand will gradually return to the normal level or the peak consumption season from a relatively weak season in March and April. From April onwards, it will start to decline in a trend, so the fundamentals of supply and demand will gradually return to the equilibrium level from the relatively loose state in the previous period."

　　Eggs have a substitution effect on meat and prices are rising.

In some farmers' markets in Shandong and Henan, the price of eggs is close to 6 yuan per catty.

Experts expect prices to fall as the weather heats up and eggs are stored for less time.

　　Vegetable prices continued to fall during the "May 1st" holiday.

In Beijing's Xinfadi market, there are frequent transport vehicles and sufficient supply of various vegetables. The weighted average price has dropped to 3.54 yuan per kilogram, the lowest since the Spring Festival this year.

Zhang Jing, an associate researcher at the Agricultural Information Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, predicts that vegetable prices will drop in the future.

Zhang Jing said: "The press conference in early April mentioned that the field area has increased by more than 3 million mu year-on-year, and there are still quite a lot of vegetables in the fields, especially when the epidemic is guaranteed, and a lot of vegetables have been replanted. In fact, in March It should have fallen rapidly. We started to drop in April, so now it is a peak season for a large number of listings, and it must have been a downward trend since then, until June and July. "

　　In terms of fruits, citrus fruits were basically withdrawn from the market in April, the inventory level of pears, apples and other storable fruits was moderately low, and the supply of domestic fruits was seasonally low, and prices rose.

This situation continued until the end of April. Monitoring showed that the average price of fruit in the last week of April was 7.69 yuan per kilogram, a week-on-week increase of 1.3%.

Zhao Junye, a researcher at the Agricultural Information Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences, predicts that fruit prices will drop slightly after the May Day holiday.

Zhao Junye said that from the perspective of demand, the demand for fruit consumption by residents during the "May 1st" holiday has increased, but due to the impact of the epidemic, the demand for stocking in various places has increased, and the freight has increased, which has also led to a month-on-month increase in the wholesale price of fruit.

In May, the fruit supply will be dominated by seasonal fruits, such as pineapples, bananas, watermelons, melons, and large cherries. The supply of fruits will increase significantly, and the overall price of fruits will drop slightly.

　　In addition to these livelihood commodities, the prices of some products that used to be relatively high have plummeted recently.

Take crayfish as an example. In the past, it used to cost tens of yuan per pound. At present, the price in many places has dropped to more than ten yuan per pound. In some places, it has even dropped to several yuan per pound.

Some merchants said: "The price of crayfish has not been high recently. The big one is 100 yuan and 5 catties, and the smaller one is 100 yuan and 7 catties. The more you breed, the less you consume, the slower you eat, the more expensive the faster you consume. ."

　　Experts pointed out that since the beginning of this year, my country has continued to take a series of effective and effective measures to ensure supply and stabilize prices, control the impact of imported inflation within a limited range, and maintain the overall stable operation of domestic prices.

At present, all kinds of people's livelihood commodities have sufficient production capacity and sufficient supply, and are fully qualified and able to continue to maintain stable prices.
