Changchun medicine on their own costly "out of stock" - Traditional Chinese Medicine - Pha

Southwest Drought affected by the aftermath, Chinese herbal medicine price inflation

Normal in all the herbs little attention, but now it appeared as a high price caused by the concern of everyone, including March 7 (also known as pseudo-ginseng) price is refreshed the historical record, the price of 600 yuan per kilogram for put on the high price of its crown.

Recently, this reporter near the train station in Changchun, places to visit several large wholesale herbs found by Southwest aftermath effects of drought, skyrocketing prices of Chinese herbal medicine, medicinal materials prices rose too fast, market disruption. High prices to Chinese medicine traders guilty of difficulty, temporary "out of stock", become the best option.

High price on March 7 half rose 100 yuan per kilogram

Five provinces, particularly Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, southwest China's largest Chinese herbal medicine is growing areas, it is understood the five provinces of the herbs growing southwest area of accounting for 22% of the total area planted. The drought disaster area, long duration, making over 80% of rhizome production of Chinese medicinal materials have been significantly affected, and even some varieties of crops face.

"On March 7 this medicine, the price has never been so high before, half the price per kg rose by 100 yuan." Changchun Chinese businessmen told reporters that they seldom purchase from Yunnan Province, mainly on the long road is not enough. To load more from Hebei Anguo City and Anhui Bozhou purchased in years, Chinese herbal medicine price rise forever, and now 60 of the March 7 price has reached 600 yuan / kg, heard about 800 yuan / kg on March 7 there are sales. Seven in August last year when 60? 70 yuan / kg, the price can jump up to the end of the year rose to 200 yuan / kg. After the Spring Festival this year, the average price soared to 430 yuan / kg.

Prices rose too fast, so that would have accounted for a smaller market share on March 7, 1:00 in an awkward position. "Now do not store large pieces of March 7, is not selling fast, year after its price has been high, inventory is not a lot." Person in charge of a pharmacy selling Chinese medicine says Ms Chan.

High prices drug manufacturers can not store goods

March 7 unique efficacy in the use of other herbal products are not replaced. This is the "price of the ice," the source has yet to melt. But one thing I must mention, the high prices disrupted the market supply and demand, the price is too high, after all, tripped over a number of economic conditions are not very good, "just be" crowd.

"Price too high, who would buy a Chinese herbal medicine, no matter how strong efficacy, or the consumer price is often the most valued, and not to mention consumers, that is, businesses in the purchase on March 7, they are mostly hesitant. "a chain drugstore Manager Liu said that before about 20 kg were purchased on March 7, now up to 5 kg, not to mention store goods, and sold these goods, really have to consider the amount of the next purchase.

Large pharmacy only buy reductions, but for a small pharmacy is concerned, simply choose to directly "out of stock" to be city. "Now keep stocks must be crazy, in terms of price uncertainty, the purchase would mean losing money, the price fluctuations of space too, have earned if the principal does not fall back." Changchun medicine wholesalers very fact that that price too high drug manufacturers can not keep stocks, not their family. Many businesses are also the same idea, refused to act without careful hedging.

Less hot money might dry blast

If arid let the market supply and demand crisis suffered, then stir outside the capital speculation, then the worse the market price. Open data revealed that in April so far, pharmaceutical preparations containing Chinese medicines have risen almost 50% more, on March 7 this year are up 523 percent.

This, the industry Ma that cut the aftermath of southwest drought-induced medicine is playing a late effect, which causes the root causes of loss of control over the market, recent operation ingredients of hot money in Wenzhou, the market has pushed a peak, the impact of power once the onset of hot money, the power is much larger than the former, the raw material price volatility is likely to pass in the second half to finished products of Chinese medicine industry, resulting in proprietary Chinese medicines in China market retail prices have risen considerably. City circulation severe drug reaction, private capital birth more manipulation of prices is difficult to predict future prices.
