Among the many seasonal fruits this year, only the price of lychee has risen against the trend.
And among the many lychee varieties, there is a lychee variety, and this year's price is simply "as fierce as Zhang Fei".
This year's "King Fried" lychee
When lychees first went on the market, the price of Hainan concubine laughing lychees raced against time and fell all the way. But when it fell to 8-12 yuan a catty, it didn't move.
The concubine who was photographed in the supermarket laughed before
The price of concubine laughing lychees in Guangdong and Guangxi this year is 2-3 times higher than last year, which is easy to say. What's even more unexpected is that this year's concubines in Guangdong and Guangxi laughed at lychees, almost laughing at them. Many people haven't waited for the cheap concubine to laugh at the lychee, and the concubine laughs at the lychee.
Then, in the current market, the concubine laughing lychee is almost gone, and the cinnamon-flavored lychee, the jade lotus lychee, and the Xianjin Feng lychee are gradually on the market.
In addition to the fact that the price of lychees is lower than that of rain and hebao, the market price this year is about 20 yuan a catty. The price of cinnamon-flavored lychees is sold at 60-80 yuan a catty.
The most surprising thing is Xianjin Feng lychee, this year's price is simply a "king fried", just listed and sold directly to 140 yuan a catty.
Supermarket real shot
Not only is the price of supermarkets high, but in the production area, the origin price of many Xianjin Feng lychees has also been sold for more than 100 yuan a catty, which is more exaggerated than the price of cinnamon-flavored lychees.
Why did Xianjin Feng Lychee become popular?
Xianjin Feng Lychee, also known as "Lychee Queen", is a mutant single plant found in the lychee seedlings in Xiancun Town, Zengcheng, Guangdong, and is a medium-late ripening lychee variety, which is 7-15 days later than Guiwei lychee.
Since 2014, many lychee-producing areas have begun to grow Xianjinfeng lychee, especially in Guangxi. Because in the past, Guangxi planted most of the black-leaved lychees, which is a very old lychee variety, and the market price is not good, and the price of black-leaved lychees in the market in previous years was often at the bottom.
Therefore, at that time, many places in Guangxi began to replant and planted Xianjin Feng lychee.
Xianjin Feng Lychee has three highlights, one is the bright red appearance and high appearance; Second, it tastes sweet and honeyy. Third, the coke core rate of lychee can be 85%.
Because of this, Xianjin Feng lychee has gradually become popular in the market.
When many consumers evaluate the flavor of lychees, they often list Xianjin Feng lychees under the "Zengcheng Hanging Green" lychee, and above the glutinous rice lychee and cinnamon-flavored lychee.
Xianjin Feng Lychee is considered to have achieved great success in the market, and some producing areas encouraged fruit farmers to change the black leaf lychee to Xianjin Feng Lychee, which can be regarded as the right change.
Is the big price increase purely a lie win?
This year, the supermarket price of Xianjin Feng lychee was sold for more than 140 yuan a catty, which was "purely lying to win".
Although Xianjin Feng lychee was also expensive, it was not so luxurious, and the highest time in the first two years was 50-70 yuan a catty. When it is low, it is only 20-40 yuan a catty.
The sharp rise in the price of lychees in Xianjin Feng this year is largely caused by the large reduction in the yield of other lychee varieties.
For example, this year's cinnamon-flavored lychee production has been reduced to only one percent. Guiwei lychee is the main force in the middle and high-end lychees, and this main force has almost been wiped out this year, and the remaining Xianjin Feng lychees can only stand alone.
Moreover, the reduction in the yield of Xianjin Feng lychee is slightly lighter, not as serious as that of cinnamon-flavored lychee.
Originally, I thought that after Xianjin Feng lychee was introduced and cultivated in various production areas, the price would be lower year by year, but I didn't expect that this year it would directly "become Zhang Fei".
It is almost the king of prices among the "lychees that can be seen" in the fruit market at the moment. Other lychees may be more expensive, but the legendary varieties are rarely found in the average fruit market.
However, the problem of Xianjin Feng lychee has always existed.
Other lychees are in bad weather, and the yield is easy to be greatly reduced.
Xianjin Feng lychee is a more heavily managed lychee variety, usually even if the wind and rain are smooth, but if the management input cost is too low, the quality and yield of Xianjin Feng will be very poor.
Moreover, Xianjin Feng has to be planted in late-maturing production areas, and the low temperature duration in early-maturing production areas is not enough, and Xianjin Feng has fewer flowers and lower yields.
This is also the main reason why many people followed the trend in the past few years to grow immortals and serve lychees, resulting in chicken feathers.
This year's lychee has begun the second half, and the price of Xianjin Feng lychee is currently a price to win, and it really responds to the old saying "The small rich rely on diligence, the middle wealth depends on virtue, and the big rich rely on life." ”
The price of Xianjin Feng lychee is considered to be a lie to win home.
