In 2016, at the China (International) Fruit Conference, Yang Jie, a researcher at the National Apple Engineering Technology Center, said that, according to authoritative statistics, the total output of Chinese fruit over the last four years increased by 46 million tons; an annual increase of 11 million 530 thousand tons. The continuous increase in output led to a corresponding decline in fruit prices, especially in China's apple industry. At present, the planting area and output are continuing to increase, which is a bit worrying. In addition, inventory, imports and exports, alternative fruit consumption and other factors, are also affecting the apple prices.
