1. A drop in garlic exports
Given the decline in garlic exports, the expansion of garlic plantations and the difficulty in placing the current garlic reserves (and many other elements) there is a possibility that the prices will still continue to fall in the coming period.
2. Bumper harvest for garlic is a certainty
Taking into account the recent weather and climate conditions and the expectation that temperatures will continue to gradually rise, which will benefit the garlic crops, and, as long as no extreme natural disasters occur, this year's bumper harvest is a certainty.
3. Growth of garlic cultivation areas exceeds 25%
Under the influence of the high garlic prices in 2016, production facilities in the provinces Shandong, Henan, Jiangsu and Yunnan have enthusiastically expanded. The growth of areas used to grow garlic in the whole country is higher than 25%. The fresh garlic from Yunnan that will enter the market between March and April will be one step ahead in shocking the domestic garlic market.
