China's vegetable market presents a trend of "four modernizations"

In recent years, more than 1,000 new varieties of vegetables have been selected, approved and promoted in China. At the same time, a number of special rare and rare varieties have been introduced and promoted. Radish and Chinese cabbage are no longer “main dishes”. Today, on the table, sprouts such as radish sprouts, pea sprouts, and toon leaves are favored by people because of their tenderness, deliciousness, chemical fertilizer, and pesticides. In addition, aquatic vegetables and wild vegetables have become "new darlings." In the road dish, cabbage and radish are in decline.
At present, the per capita vegetable consumption in China has reached 284 kilograms, which is more than double the world average. According to analysis, the large-scale promotion of greenhouse cultivation technology in recent years has broken the season and geographical restrictions of vegetable cultivation. This is the main reason for the diversification of vegetable consumption and the increase in the consumption of “difficult vegetables”. A large number of imported "vegetables" have gradually realized "localization" so that people can enjoy a lot of food when they spend less.
According to professional analysis, the “four modernizations” trend in the vegetable market in China:
(1) Conversion to a nutrient-health care type. Picking a good selection, stressing quality, stressing nutrition, and talking about reasonable collocation, paying attention to nutrition and health care have become the basic requirements of most consumers.
(2) To "green food" type conversion. The use of biological pesticides and high-efficiency low-residue chemical pesticides, the prohibition of the use of highly toxic pesticides, the minimum application of chemical fertilizers, and the application of organic fertilizers to avoid and reduce the pollution of vegetables have become the current trend of vegetable production.
(3) Conversion to multiple types. Nowadays, the sales of vegetables on the market are lagging behind. People tend to buy seasonal vegetables and anti-season vegetables. For example, tomatoes and leeks sell more in the off-season. In the winter in the north, the cucumbers and cauliflower produced in the south are better sold.
(4) Convenient to processing. The net vegetable market has been adapted to the fast pace and high efficiency of urban residents. Now it is developing into a small packaging stage for net foods, namely, in the place of production, disinfection, sterilization, grading and sealing of membranes, and it is then put on the market.
