With the start of picking blueberries in the open air in China, the price of blueberries has also begun to decline. Friends who love to eat blueberries are not long away from the freedom of blueberries. Here is a trick to buy fresh blueberries with good cost-effectiveness. Try not to buy 125g packaged blueberries as much as possible, because a large part of this type of blueberry is packaging costs, which cannot be seen when the price is high. If the price is low, the packaging cost will not be low, and the cost-effectiveness will be low, If there is a simple packaging of 500g or 1kg, the cost-effectiveness is the highest.
It is said that following the current trend, the price of fresh blueberries will be significantly reduced soon. Blueberry freedom will soon be realized. When the price of fresh blueberries drops significantly, frozen blueberries will begin processing on a large scale.
The total planting area of blueberries is increasing every year, but the total yield of blueberries has grown the fastest in the past 1-2 years.
However, there are two worrying issues. The first is that many regions in Guizhou have relatively old blueberry varieties, with many rabbit eye varieties. The market updates quickly and cannot sell at a good price. Many people ignore blueberries and let them survive on their own, so these areas are basically abandoned. Secondly, some people have been promoting small blueberry varieties mainly for the sake of selling seedlings. Due to the huge profits in the market, they even claim to be able to recycle fruits in order to sell seedlings. Everyone thinks there is something wrong with it. As far as I know, the sales of fresh small blueberries are not smooth now, and frozen fruits cannot be sold at a high price. In the long run, if farmers grow small blueberries that are mature and cannot sell at a high price, it will be a tragic outcome and I will be responsible for everyone's irresponsibility. Personally, I believe it has always been a hidden danger.
The remaining sales in the fresh fruit market will be processed into frozen blueberries, and the production of frozen blueberries is also increasing year by year. It is expected that the total production of frozen blueberries this year will exceed 10000 tons. If there are adverse weather conditions during the ripening period, the quantity of frozen blueberries will be even larger.
In the frozen blueberry industry, this is a small variety, and if the quantity exceeds 500 tons, it belongs to the large family.
Let's talk about some strange phenomena of frozen blueberries, which are different from other frozen fruits
1： Some people's Moments sell frozen blueberries, with many exceeding 600 tons. Moments ship them every day during the production season, and they also ship them one after another when they are out of stock. Taking a few photos for a year, it has also exceeded 1000 tons. According to Moments, the frozen production of this year exceeded 50000 tons. To give everyone an illusion, it's like a thriving scene. If it weren't for someone telling me something, I would have always felt that the truth was like this.
2： The packaging situation of frozen strawberries, yellow peaches, blackberries, and so on is quite regular, either in bags or boxes, which are basically the same. Frozen blueberries are not the same. Woven bags do not have inner bags, and cardboard boxes are nailed with nails. The colors of tape are diverse, and there are several colors of inner bags. I have also seen plastic tote bags used for inner bags, and the processing factory conditions are not uneven.
3： Some of the fruits that are specifically needed are red frozen blueberries, which made me very ignorant. At first, I thought this was a new variety that sold at a high price. The red flesh looks great when made into freeze-dried powder.
Later on, when asked by a professional, they realized that this was a specialized variety. It was because the aged goods had been stored for a long time, and the temperature in the warehouse was not good. After being reheated multiple times, the skin froze and turned into a red liquid, which was soaked in the flesh to form a red flesh blueberry. The darker the color, the less fresh the fruit. Some rabbit eyed blueberries from the previous few years in the cold storage can't be sold even after being stored in small cold storage for a few years, and some even have a sour taste. They became fragrant cakes because of their use as freeze-dried powder, and were cleared last year.
This type of blueberry produces freeze-dried powder, which is indeed red in color and visually appealing. This is also my recent experience. If you need frozen blueberries with red flesh, you only need to warm them up a few times to achieve the desired effect.
