According to data from the Provincial Bureau of Statistics, from the beginning of the year until now, input costs in agricultural production, including prices of fertilizers, agricultural materials, and prices of animal feed, etc. have all increased simultaneously. In particular, the price of fertilizer has increased by about 50 - 70% depending on the product compared to the beginning of the year. The reason for the increased prices of these items is partly due to transportation costs, especially costs for the prevention and control of the COVID-19 epidemic.
