Small farmers' grape orders fell by 70%, calling on the company community to buy a large number of groups.

The grapes are full of fruit, but the farmers in Changhua village are very nervous. After the domestic epidemic was upgraded to the third level of alert, the consumption pattern of Chinese people changed from physical to online, resulting in a reduction in the order volume of restaurants and fruit shops. "upstream and downstream" actually asked farmers' associations and farmers that most of the grapes in large villages were sold directly by farmers, and a small amount of grapes were sold by peasant associations. With the suspension of classes, diversion to work, and unstable logistics and transportation, orders for both peasant associations and farmers have dropped sharply, and farmers' orders have even decreased by more than 70%. The warm winter last year led to the early harvest of grapes in Nantou, and the strong collision of grapes on both sides was quite disadvantageous to sales.

At present, the Changhua Dacun Peasant Association and the Puxin Peasant Association help farmers sell grapes. Lai Ximou, director of the promotion department of the Changhua County Dacun Peasant Association, says that you are welcome to buy grapes in the company and community buildings. if you order a large number of the peasant association, it will be delivered directly by special car, which is not subject to logistics restrictions.

In Changhua grape production season, there was a strong epidemic situation, and there was flooding.

Changhua is an important grape town in China, with a planting area of about 1200 hectares, about half of the country's total area, with the most species in Xihu Town and Dacun Township. Huang Songqin, head of the agricultural affairs section of the Department of Agriculture in Changhua County, said that the grapes were planted in the greenhouse in Xihu Town, and the harvest time was earlier, and the production season was from February to the end of April, which belonged to early spring grapes. Grapes in Dacun Township were mainly planted in the open air, starting in May and all the way to July.

It is now the grape production season in Dacun. Lai Ximou, director of the promotion department of Dacun Peasant Association, said that the peasant association used to assist in selling only a few, and 60% to 70% of the grapes in Dacun were sold directly by farmers. Wu Kuo-Ming, a farmer in the 10th class of grape production and marketing in Dacun, also said that the farmers who will be put up for auction are large farmers with a certain planting scale. Most of the farmers in Dacun are small farmers, and their sales are directly allocated to consumers, and occasionally they will be sold to disk merchants at a low price when there is an over-production and slow sales.

"at present, only half of the grapes are produced in Dacun township, but the farmers in the producing area have encountered the trouble of production and sales. Lai Ximou explained that the grapes in Dacun are expected to receive in mid-July, but recent days of torrential rain have flooded some vineyards, affecting the root development of grape plants and causing fruit cracking, and the sales situation this year is very different from that in the past. Orders from farmers and peasant associations continue one after another. "now the orders from peasant associations alone are more than 30% less. "

Farmers' orders are 70% less, and logistics is still blocked.

Orders from peasant associations have decreased, and the situation of farmers is also not optimistic. "compared with previous years, the order for our production and marketing class is 70% less. Wu Kuo-Ming said helplessly that in the past, the main customers of homestead were group buying by companies and schools. through large orders, they could charter cars to reduce freight costs, and the arrival of goods was fresh, and they could also increase customers' willingness to buy at preferential prices. this year, as a result of the epidemic, domestic schools have been suspended and companies have been diverted to work, and the number of orders has been greatly reduced.

Wu Guoming said that the advantage of the allocation of small farmers' homes is that the prices do not need to be affected by the merchants or auction prices, and the prices are very stable, but they cannot find customers this year, business in the traditional market is cold, and the merchants do not come to the place of origin to look for goods. Supermarkets and other channels do not seem to have the intention to increase the purchase volume of the place of origin. "it took more than five months for the harvest to be harvested. As a result, farmers are very anxious and under great pressure on sales. "

Without a large number of group orders, wouldn't retail orders for grapes also relieve the pressure on sales? "the problem is that there are no orders and bulk logistics do not want to send them. Wu Kuo-Ming said that the production and marketing class used to cooperate with Zhaipatong, and after the logistics could be overloaded a few days ago, logistics operators were no longer willing to accept low-temperature home parcels. As for the fact that the Council of Agriculture asked the post office and Kerry Darong for freight support a few days ago, Wu Guoming bluntly said that grapes have to be matched at a low temperature, and the post office can only send them at room temperature. Kerry Darong currently sends them out in seven days to arrive. "Grape delivery takes seven days to turn into grape juice. "

Nantou grape ripens early, there are many fruits on the market, and the competition is fierce.

At present, there are still three grapes in Dacun, Changhua. Wu Songyuan, director of the promotion department of the Xihu Peasants' Association, says that last year's warm winter caused grapes from Nantou and Taichung News Society to ripen earlier, and now they are in strong contact with Changhua grapes. in addition, many fruits are also in the growing season, and the competition is fierce. The relative price of grapes is high, so it is difficult for consumers to buy more frequently; even group buying is now beset with difficulties because of epidemic prevention and fear of clustering.

If you buy grapes from a group, you will not be afraid of logistics delays if you send them by a special car from the place of origin.

If you want to help Changhua grapes tide over the difficulties, what should consumers do? Huang Songqin explains that at present, both the Dacun Peasant Association and the Puxin Peasant Association buy grapes with farmers, and consumers can buy grapes from the peasant association. "as long as the order is large enough, the producing area will be delivered directly by chauffeured car, so you don't have to be held back by logistics. "A small order still depends on logistics.
