“This kind of weather certainly has an impact on us, and the impact can be great!” When reporters asked whether the weather had any effect on the sale of fruit, wholesalers generally expressed this. Mr. Wu, who is in charge of marketing, told reporters: “In general, at this time, the weather should have warmed up and the fruits have been sold. However, the weather has been bad this year, and the weather has just turned cloudy and the business has not been able to do so. Generally Red Fuji, oranges, and pears are relatively easy to sell, and this year's sales have fallen by about half. "A boss engaged in the wholesale sales of oranges also reluctantly told reporters: "Now, a cargo of goods to 7, 8 days or even 10 It can only be sold in 3 or 5 days when the weather is good.

"It was rainy weather, but it was not sold out in time. With rainy weather, the sugar cane that I came in was broken. I was black-hearted. I could only sell it at a reduced price and I lost 50,000 yuan." After some loss of money, Li Yinfa was very depressed.

The price of fruit may rise later or will be affected by rainy weather. Fruits are not sold well, and the price of fruit has also been affected.

If it is high, the prices of supermarkets and retailers will follow.” Li Yinfa made his own predictions on the price trend of the late-fruit market.
