One of the characteristics of air freight is its high speed. This allows fresh food, high-value goods, etc. to travel long distances in a short time while maintaining their freshness and quality. Take beef as an example. High-quality beef needs to be transported quickly from the place of production to the place of consumption, and air transportation has become the only choice.
However, the cost of air freight is relatively high. Fluctuations in fuel prices, route planning, and airport facility usage fees all affect transportation costs. This cost increase may be indirectly transmitted to the price of end products, such as beef rice.
In addition, changes in international trade policies will also have an impact on air cargo transport. Increased trade barriers may make the transportation process more complicated and extend customs clearance time, thereby increasing transportation uncertainty and costs. For Japan, which relies on imported beef, these policy changes may have an impact on the supply and price of beef.
From the perspective of the supply chain, the stability of air transport cargo is crucial to ensuring the smooth operation of the industrial chain. Once flight delays, cancellations or insufficient capacity occur, the supply of raw materials such as beef may be hindered, which in turn affects the production and sales of beef rice.
In the context of the global market, emergencies such as natural disasters and public health incidents can also have a huge impact on air transport and cargo. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, countries have adopted blockade measures, air transport has been severely restricted, and the global supply chain has been disrupted. Japan's beef imports have also been affected, with reduced beef supply and rising prices, which are ultimately reflected in the selling price of beef rice.
In summary, although the price increase of Japanese beef rice seems to be a local market phenomenon, it is closely related to many factors such as the development, cost, policy and stability of the global supply chain of air transport and cargo transportation. We need to understand and analyze these seemingly isolated economic phenomena from a more macro perspective to grasp the dynamics and trends of the market.
