Recently, due to typhoon “Mesak”, Hengzhou in Guangxi experienced continuous heavy rainfall. This “World Jasmine Capital,” which has a planting area of over 180,000 mu, produces more than 150,000 tons of flowers per year, and accounts for more than 80% of the country's total, was hit by floods. The floods caused by torrential rains over the past few days not only flooded large flower fields, but also put the jasmine market price on a “roller coaster”. In just a few days, the price of jasmine soared from about ten yuan per catty to nearly 50 yuan/kg. According to the official account of Huaxiang Impression, on July 12, the market price of jasmine in Hengzhou was 40 yuan/kg, reaching a maximum of 50 yuan/kg. The highest price in places such as Ishii, Ohashi, and School Cycling also reached 47 yuan/kg. The data shows that before the floods occurred, the market price of jasmine ranged from 13 to 18 yuan per catty in early July. After the disaster, the price on July 12 had more than doubled.
