Xi'an to release 13,600 tons of reserve vegetables citywide

During holidays or when rain or snow hits, vegetable prices often rise. To effectively respond to abnormal fluctuations in vegetable prices, our city has stored 17,000 tons of common vegetables, and starting today, 13,600 tons of reserve vegetables will be released to community residents at prices 10% to 15% below market retail prices to meet public demand.

The types of reserve vegetables released this time mainly include 9 varieties such as Chinese cabbage, white radish, carrot, potato, winter melon, pumpkin, onion and scallion. This release has set up 26 distribution points across the city and is carried out in two phases: the first phase is from December 27 to 31, and the second phase is from February 2 to February 6, 2016, for a total of 10 days.
