Cabbage again burst the tide of seed grab, bright purple explosion alert! Farmers believe that the good price of cabbage this year, coupled with days of torrential rain, has led to a consistent resumption period. The number of cabbage seedlings supplied in August has exceeded the reasonable range, and the number of cabbage seedlings has reached 7.13 million in late August. The growing period of cabbage is about 70 days, and this wave of planting is expected to enter the harvest period in early November, which may lead to problems in abundance and an imbalance in production and marketing.

Vegetable prices rose after torrential rains in the south, triggering a rush for cabbage seeds. Some farmers said that for the first time this year, a "production registration system" was launched, with the government subsidizing fertilizers and offering insurance to buy them. "of course, farmers have a high willingness to put into production!" But there are also farmers who smell the crash crisis in advance and switch to other crops early.

In this regard, the Agriculture and Food Department stresses that although the registration system guarantees a purchase price of at least NT $6 per kilogram, vegetable gardens must comply with the purchase regulations, and cabbage must have commodity value. "not more than half of them must be insect bites or rotten leaves." At the same time, it calls on farmers to assess the market and risk before entering the market, to spread planting, reduce seeds or turn into plans, and not to rush for seeds, lest the price collapse will affect their own income.

Xu Jifei, head of the crop production team of the Agriculture and Food Department, said that farmers generally planted cabbage seedlings one after another in August, but in the first half of the year, the central and southern parts of the country were successively affected by Lekima and Bailu, coupled with days of torrential rain brought by the southwest airstream. Agriculture in the central and southern part of the country suffered heavy losses, and it was difficult to grow in flat land areas. After the climate stabilized slightly in late August, there was a trend of concentrated planting.

The number of cabbages supplied by the nursery in late August was 7.13 million, which exceeded the "warning value of 5.4 million" benchmark, so the Agriculture and Food Department continued to strengthen early warning notices to warn farmers.
