　　1月13日，中央人民广播电台当日援引国家发改委价格司副司长周望军表示，今年物价上涨压力仍然很大，如果一季度中国物价上涨压力继续加大，不排除出台新的调控举措。

Zhou Wangjun said that because of the increase in consumption during the Spring Festival and the decrease in production, the price index was relatively low in the same period last year, and was affected by the tail factor.

In the long run, prices of international import inflation, domestic labor and land prices continue to rise, making prices still facing some upward pressure.

As for what measures to take to stabilize prices in the future, Zhou Wangjun did not make it clear.

However, according to the China Securities Daily, people close to the NDRC said that the NDRC has become increasingly cautious about the use of administrative means.

According to Xinhua news agency, following the rebound of over 29 prices of 29 main foods in 50 cities in late December last year, prices of major food products such as vegetables, edible oil and aquatic products continued to rise, and the prices of finished grain and meat also increased slightly.

Hunan, Chongqing, Guangxi and other areas experiencing snow and ice disaster, vegetable prices rose the most obvious.

Data from futures markets are also not optimistic.

Recently, most of the major grain producing areas in the world have been affected by factors such as droughts and cold weather. The price of bulk agricultural products such as soybeans and corn has started to rise, which has led to a concussion in the internal market and a marked increase in market uncertainty.

Under the rising prices of vegetables and other foods, some areas are beginning to loom "grab vegetables".

In addition to the contradiction between supply and demand, some analysts say that the speculation factors for individual small agricultural products have not yet been completely eliminated.

"Especially the garlic and ginger two varieties, easy to store, one year one ripe characteristics make it more vulnerable to hot money preferences."

Shenyang Wanguo Securities Research Institute analysis report said.
