Has the price of guava and pineapple gone down? Is the price of pineapple better than the same period last year?

The KMT caucus held a press conference on the 2nd, pointing out that the price of guava (guava) in April this year was not as good as that in the same period last year, and that the price of pineapple in April was also lower than that of last year, and called on Chen Jizhong, chairman of the Council of Agriculture, to come up with countermeasures. Su Maoxiang, deputy director of the Agriculture and Food Administration, responded that at present, the price of guava has stabilized, which is higher than the production cost of farmers, and the price of pineapple this week is even higher than that of the same period last year.

According to the data of the Agricultural products Wholesale Market, the average auction price of guava in Taipei in April 108 was 16.1 yuan, which was lower than that of 45.4 yuan in the same period last year, while the average auction price of pineapple in April 108 was 21.8 yuan, which was lower than the 30.9 yuan in the same period last year.

KMT legislator Zeng Mingzong said that recently, when he went to a fruit store near the Legislative Yuan to buy guavas, the price was 100 yuan for seven big guavas. "do farmers still have any income in this way?" Lin Yihua, a KMT legislator, said that recently, the prices of guavas and pineapples have cost farmers nothing. Chen Yimin, a KMT legislator, said that in April, Chen Jizhong even gave each legislator a box of guavas, but KMT League legislators should sell them out as soon as possible. Chen Jizhong should respond as soon as possible to solve the imbalance between production and marketing.

On the 2nd, the auction price of guava reached 18.7 yuan per kilogram in Taipei, which was much higher than the monitoring price of 10.8 yuan. The auction price of pineapple on the 2nd was 26 yuan per kilogram, which was higher than 22.4 yuan per kilogram in the same period last year. Su Maoxiang said that through export, promotion and processing, the prices of guava and pineapple have stabilized. As for the fact that the current price of guava is lower than that of the same period last year, he explains that "the price of guava is not particularly high." at present, the price of guava is higher than the production costs of farmers, so the Council of Agriculture will no longer intervene. Pineapple yields earlier this year because of climatic factors, but it also makes the current harvest less than in the same period last year, and the price of pineapple this week is even higher than that in the same period last year.
