2. Analysis of the reasons why Qiuyue pear is unsalable

2.Changes in consumer preferences: The popularization of the concept of healthy eating has led some consumers to turn to low-sugar fruits, while Qiuyue pear has a high sugar content, which may not meet the needs of some consumers.
3.Price factors: The purchase price of Qiuyue pears this year has risen by 15% compared with last year, resulting in a surge in terminal retail prices and curbing some consumer demand.
4.Weather impact: This year, some production areas encountered continuous rainy weather during the ripening period of Qiuyue pear, which affected the quality of fruits and led to a decrease in consumers' willingness to purchase.
3. Producing areas respond
