民国上海国医药界与鄞县贝母合作社纠纷

Disputes Between the Medical Circles of Shanghai and the Fritillaria Cooperative of Yinxian County During the Republic of China

近代以来,中药材中的贝母商品化程度提高,其市场销售直接关系价值的实现。鄞县贝母合作社成立后即采取一系列措施提高贝母价格,颇受社员欢迎。然而,贝母价格的高涨却引发了合作社与上海国医药界长达一年多的纠纷。纠纷主要围绕贝母价格是否过高、贝母合作社是否为垄断组织、前胡是否可以代替贝母三个问题展开,背后实为利益争论。这一纠纷的出现最终导致合作社经营出现困难,政府乘机加强对合作社的控制,但客观上也推动了贝母药理的研究,由此也可认识到民国时期合作社走向市场的艰辛与不易。

Since modern times,the commercialization of Fritillaria in Chinese medical materials had been improved,and its market sales had a direct bearing on the realization of its value.After the establishment of the Fritillaria Cooperative of Yinxian County,series of measures were taken to increase the price of Fritillaria,which was welcomed by the members.However,the rising price of Fritillaria led to more than a year of disputes between the Cooperative and Shanghai medical circles.The disputes mainly focused on whether the price of Fritillaria was too high,whether the Fritillaria Cooperative was a monopoly organization,and whether Qianhu could replace Fritillaria.The emergence of this dispute led to difficulties in the operation of the Cooperative,and therefore the local government took the opportunity to strengthen the control of the Cooperative,but actually promoted the pharmacological study of Fritillaria.
