A number of factors affect the cost of a popular vegetable.
High prices for potatoes in Ukraine will be preserved at least to a new crop, and, perhaps longer.
This is reported by Eastfruit.
The current cost of potatoes corresponds to the prices of an imported product from the Netherlands, Poland and Lithuania, ready to supply high -quality potatoes to the Ukrainian market.
This deficit is due to crop failure in the Netherlands in 2023, which complicated the import of high -quality seeds to Ukraine. The situation was aggravated by adverse weather conditions during the harvest of 2024.
additional factors affecting the price are the rise in the cost of plant protection, fertilizers, human labor and electricity in recent years.
Earlier it was reported that the price of greenhouse cucumbers in Ukraine increased again due to the activation of demand for these products due to a previously low supply several weeks ago.
