Garlic is unsalable everywhere. There may be no bottom line for the depressed price of garlic this year.

In the twinkling of an eye, it is 2018! Speaking of garlic, I am afraid it is not only the heartache of garlic farmers, but also the death of many garlic merchants who stored garlic in cold storage in 2017. New garlic has been listed in the south one after another this year, but there is no doubt that garlic is generally unsalable. At this juncture, if anyone is still optimistic about the garlic market this year, it will be really strange. To what extent can the price of garlic be as low as possible this year? Scientific development of agriculture thinks that it is optimistic that the peak can reach 1.5-2 yuan per jin. Let's talk about our views.

First of all, let's take a look at the current price of new garlic. Lijiang garlic in Yunnan Province has been scraped from the south to the north, and this price has been scraped from the south to the north. Precocious garlic in northern garlic producing areas such as Henan, Shandong, Jiangsu, Anhui, and so on, has also been on the market one after another. The price per jin is also generally in the range of 40 to 70 cents, which can be said to be quite weak. Although the current garlic is wet garlic, the price of dry garlic is only one yuan per jin. It can be said that the current market has set a basic tone for garlic this year.

If you look at the initial price of new garlic on the market last year, it was 1 yuan per jin, and then there was a big rise. during the peak period, dried garlic reached 2.5 yuan per jin, but after entering August, due to the saturation of the garlic market and limited demand, the price of garlic plummeted, and finally fell below 1 yuan per jin. It can be said that the market environment in which garlic supply exceeds demand has been very obvious since last year, and many garlic farmers unconsciously still insist on large-scale expansion of garlic. according to statistics, the area of garlic has increased unabated in 2018. This blind expansion directly leads to a serious oversupply of garlic in the market.

Garlic is not the only one affected by the expansion of garlic area. the price of garlic bolting is also plummeting this year. Judging from the response of garlic farmers, many garlic failed to bolt due to the weather, and the yield per mu of garlic bolts decreased significantly, but even under such circumstances, the price of garlic bolting failed to rise, and even many garlic farmers threw out garlic bolts painfully. Today, both garlic farmers and garlic merchants do not have much hope for the future market.

The expansion of garlic area has also led to serious unsalability during the period of concentrated listing of new garlic. at present, farmers are anxious and garlic merchants hold down prices, which leads to ultra-low garlic prices at the beginning of this year. But even if the price of garlic picks up at a later stage, garlic farmers should not get their hopes up. After all, the 2017 garlic in the freezer has not been sold out. The serious oversupply of garlic is a foregone conclusion.
