Prices were good too, which was a strong contributing factor in pushing output up to a new level.
On the eve of the Spring Festival, the acquisition price of sugar orange per kilogram reached 9-10 yuan (1,20 euro), higher than it has ever been.
The production of litchi also increased steadily, with prices 20-30% higher than last year; longan production increased by 15%; mango prices were up 10% and red pitaya production increased by 50%. Passion fruit has been selling at a high price as well, and is still in short supply.
