Report Summary 1) Report Industry Investment Rating No specific industry investment rating is provided in the report [3][18] 2) Core Viewpoints - The market is in a complex situation of dual - festival stocking and the alternation of new and old seasons. The delay in the listing of new - season late - Fuji apples and the differentiation of inventory quality are the main market contradictions. The scarcity of high - quality goods supports the bottom price of the spot, but weak trading restricts the upward space. The futures market maintains a volatile pattern under the influence of multiple and short factors. It is recommended to hold long positions in AP2601 [3]. - As the weather turns cooler, the supply of seasonal fruits decreases, and the demand for Mid - Autumn and National Day gift boxes boosts the apple consumption market. The purchasing enthusiasm of merchants increases, and the sales speed accelerates. The acquisition price of late - maturing Fuji may benefit from the high opening price of early - and mid - maturing apples and festival consumption expectations. It is necessary to focus on the climate impact on the high - quality fruit rate of late - maturing Fuji and the opening price dynamics from late September to early October. It is recommended to hold long positions in AP2601 [18]. 3) Summary by Relevant Catalogs Apple Production Areas - **Shandong**: The price of inventory paper - bagged late - Fuji apples (80 and above, slice - red, first - and second - grade) is 3.00 - 4.00 yuan/jin; the price of paper - bagged late - Fuji apples (80 and above, slice - red, general goods) is 2.50 - 3.00 yuan/jin; the price of inventory striped late - Fuji apples (80 and above, first - and second - grade) is 3.50 - 4.50 yuan/jin.

The quality differentiation of early - maturing apples has led to concerns about the quality of deliverable Fuji apples.

Due to high - temperature weather, there are problems such as difficult coloring, and the large - scale listing time is expected to be delayed compared with previous years. In the Shandong producing area, the current supply of Luli apples is average, and the trading price is stable. Some early - maturing apple varieties in Shandong and high - quality paper - bagged Gala apples in Shaanxi have higher listing prices than last year. However, due to climate factors, the proportion of high - quality apples has decreased, and the mainstream price has shown a downward trend after the high - price start [3] Forecast of New - Season Apple Yield and Price - The preliminary estimate of the new - season apple yield shows a limited reduction. The reference range for the opening price is 3.2 - 3.5 yuan per catty (equivalent to 7,500 - 8,500 yuan per ton).

1. Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. 2. Core View of the Report - The apple market currently has low inventory and is in the off - season of demand, with general spot sales. The new - season apple production is expected to change little compared to this season.

Summary by Directory 3.1 Apple Spot Analysis - In the western region, there was limited trading of early - maturing apples this week. Paper - bag Gala apples were sporadically on the market, and the trading of paper - bag Qinyang apples was almost finished. In Shandong, the inventory Fuji apples' sales were slightly faster than last week, but overall transactions were still low. The prices of early - maturing apples were weak, and the inventory apples' prices were stable during the week. In the wholesale markets of sales areas, high - quality apples fetched high prices, but the overall sales were still slow. Next week, the supply of early - maturing paper - bag Gala apples will increase, and attention should be paid to their quality and price trends [8]. - In Shandong, the trading atmosphere has not improved significantly. Buyers are not active in purchasing large and high - quality apples and tend to bargain. Most fruit farmers and sellers sell at the market price, and some are eager to sell. The remaining supply in Shandong is mainly in Qixia and Penglai, and the traded apples are mostly low - priced slice - red apples. In Qixia, the prices of 80 first - and second - grade slice - red apples are 3.30 - 4.00 yuan/jin, 80 first - and second - grade striped apples are 3.50 - 4.50 yuan/jin, general apples are 2.80 - 3.30 yuan/jin, and third - grade apples are 2.00 - 2.50 yuan/jin. In Shaanxi, the inventory apples are mainly self - consumed by merchants, with slow sales. The prices of high - quality apples are temporarily stable. In Xianyang, early - maturing Gala apples have problems such as greening and poor coloring due to high temperatures. In Weinan and Tongchuan, rainfall after bag - removal is beneficial for Gala apples' coloring. Currently, a small amount of Gala apples are on the market, with a significant price gap between high - quality and low - quality ones. For example, in Chengcheng, the price of early - maturing paper - bag Gala apples starting from 70 with 30% redness is around 4.2 - 4.3 yuan/jin, and high - quality ones are around 4.5 yuan/jin [8]. 3.2 Supply Analysis - As of August 7, 2025, the national cold - storage inventory ratio was about 3.91%, a decrease of 0.45 percentage points in this period (20250731 - 0806), and 2.93 percentage points lower than the same period last year.

The overall cold - storage shipment volume was lower than last week, and the current shipment was mainly concentrated in the main production areas. The number of merchants inspecting goods in cold - storage increased slightly this week, and the transactions also improved, but most of the goods were not sent to the market after the transaction, and the actual shipment volume decreased. The cold - storage shipment speed was lower than last year, mainly affected by the low prices of other seasonal fruits. Cold - storage operators were eager to ship, especially for some lower - quality goods. In Shaanxi, the cold - storage capacity ratio was 3.58%, a decrease of 0.46 percentage points. There was little remaining inventory in cold - storage, and there was almost no trading in the cold - storage. Merchants shipped their own goods according to market demand. High temperatures and low prices of other fruits significantly impacted the apple demand, and the merchants' shipment volume decreased [13]. - As of August 6, 2025, the apple cold - storage inventory in the main production areas of the country was 53.39 tons, a decrease of 8.02 tons compared to last week.

The low prices of seasonal fruits increased their sales, and some spot merchants switched to seasonal fruits, which impacted the apple market sales. The number of arriving vehicles in the market remained at a low level, the terminal consumption slowed down slightly, and second - and third - level wholesalers purchased on demand [16]. - According to the data from the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, the average wholesale price of 6 key - monitored fruits on August 7 was 7 yuan/kg, slightly lower than last Friday, and it was at the median level in recent years [16]. - In the 2024 - 2025 production season, the profit of storage operators of 80 first - and second - grade apples in Qixia was 0.5 yuan/jin, a decrease of 0.1 yuan/jin compared to last week [16]. - The market arrival volume this week continued to be low, slightly increasing compared to last week. The sales were stable, and the prices were stable. The arrival volume in the wholesale market was not much different from last week and generally remained at a low level.

According to Zhuochuang Information, the apple arrival volume in the Guangzhou Chalong market was about 131 vehicles, an increase of 9 vehicles compared to last week. The apple sales speed in the market was stable. High temperatures in many places recently made watermelons and other fruits the mainstream demand in the market, which significantly impacted other fruits.

The mainstream transaction prices in the market remained stable [16]. 3.4 Trading Strategy - For single - side trading, it is recommended to wait and see [18]. - For arbitrage, it is recommended to wait and see [18]. - For options, it is recommended to wait and see [17].
