After a year and a half, Taiwanese grouper has resumed being exported to the mainland. Most farmers are optimistic regarding the price increase before the Lunar New Year and look forward to returning to the past prosperity of more than 300 yuan per catty. However, some farmers are worried regarding the recurrence of “rush to breed” chaos. . Su Qingquan, deputy chief executive of the Kuomintang Policy Association, said that he would further strive to lift the ban on fish, mango, lotus root and pineapple.
The Taiwan Affairs Office of the Mainland China announced on the 22nd that it would resume the import of Taiwanese grouper. As soon as the news came out, farmers were very happy. A farmer surnamed Wu in Jiadong Township, Pingtung said excitedly: “I am so happy that I want to set off firecrackers!” He said that since June last year, Taiwan’s farmers are really pitiful when the mainland issued a ban on grouper. Although the government has always emphasized that it will expand markets such as the United States and Singapore, these are of symbolic significance.
The farmer surnamed Wu bluntly said that except for mainland China, other countries have different food cultures, so the amount of grouper that can be exported is limited. This has nothing to do with political stance, it is a matter of market orientation. If the government continues to ignore this important point, farmers can only continue to suffer. Fortunately, the mainland has shown goodwill and lifted the ban before the Lunar New Year, which is the best New Year gift.
He said that the current price of grouper can reach up to 170 yuan per catty, which is not bad. According to convention, the price of fish will rise before the Chinese New Year, so he is optimistic regarding the selling price following that. But what he hopes most is political stability, which is very important. As a practical matter, only with political stability can the market be stable and fish prices return to their former glory.
Some farmers also expressed different views. A farmer surnamed Wang in Fangliao Township said: “The lifting of the ban on grouper in Taiwan is partly regarding joy and partly regarding worry.” He explained that everyone knows the happy part, but the worried part is ” The chaos of “rush to breed” may reappear, and clues are already emerging.
The farmer surnamed Wang pointed out that when the price of grouper collapsed, farmers switched to raising larvae. Now, the larvae have collapsed. The cost price of 1 catty is 90 yuan, but the price is only 100 yuan. When the ban on grouper is lifted, the farmers have already I am ready to jump ship once more, and with the stable price of grouper in the past two years, there has been a bidding phenomenon for dragon and tiger grouper fry.
He said that he had placed an order with a fish fry dealer last month, but the price kept being increased because of people rushing to buy the goods. The original 18 yuan for a fry was increased to 27 yuan. The phenomenon of “rush to breed” has emerged. The lifting of the grouper ban is certainly a good thing. , but there are too many unpredictable things in the future. If you are not fully prepared, you may suffer heavy losses later.
Su Qingquan said that exporting agricultural products should not be ideological. After helping to lift the ban on grouper, he will continue to negotiate as the chairman of the Chinese Agricultural Economics Association and will fight for the lifting of the ban on squid, mango, lotus and pineapple. Among them Because pineapples are also grown in large quantities in mainland China, the difficulty is relatively high, but we will continue to work hard.
