Last week, Russian producers of greenhouse cucumbers were forced to lower prices for their products, EastFruit analysts share information.
The fall in prices is due to the rapid increase in the area under the cucumbers this year. Because of this, the domestic market is oversaturated with local produce. At the end of the week, greenhouse plants shipped cucumber "with prickles" at the price of 90-140 rubles / kg or $ 1.40-2.18 / kg. This is 8% cheaper than it was a week earlier. “Smooth” cucumbers are sold at 65-90 rubles / kg ($ 1.01-1.40 / kg), which is 10% cheaper than in the last days a week earlier.
