What's the difference between a farmer's market and a vegetable market?

There is no difference between the two. The vegetable market refers to a fixed place in a region where vegetables, melons, fruits, aquatic products, eggs, meat and its products, grain and its products, bean products, cooked food, condiments, local products and other agricultural products and foods are sold.

Farmers' market is a place where producers and consumers of agricultural and sideline products directly conduct trading activities. The farmer's market has obvious economic attributes. As the main place for the supply of "food basket" goods for urban and rural residents, it also has sociality and strong public welfare.

As far as its social status is concerned, the farmer's market can better reflect the image of the government compared with other commercial formats. The government usually regards it as a platform for "livelihood project", "re-employment project" and "agriculture, countryside and farmers" to promote urban development, display the image of the city and build a harmonious society.

Development trend of farmers' market;

With the change of consumption habits and lifestyles, the traditional farmers' market in economically developed areas or cities will gradually withdraw from the market stage. At present, Shenzhen, Guangzhou, Shanghai and other regions no longer plan new farmers' markets in urban commercial development planning, but replace them with other new formats, and all existing farmers' markets require upgrading, such as new markets, community service centers, agricultural supermarkets and so on.

In a short time, the farmers' market will still play its unique role in the city and play a leading role in towns, suburbs and other areas. In the long run, it is inevitable that the farmer's market will be upgraded, transformed and even withdrawn from the historical stage. In the past seven or eight years, many beneficial explorations and attempts have been made in the construction of new farmers' markets in economically developed cities and regions in China, and these beneficial experiences are worth learning from other markets.

Looking at the historical evolution of domestic farmer's market and summarizing the practice of brand market and innovation market in advanced regions, the future development of farmer's market mainly shows as follows: diversification of sovereign subjects, compound mixed operation, specialization, expansion of chain brands, integration of market services, electronic trading methods, regional mergers and acquisitions, etc.
