Already this month, we should expect a price increase for vegetables of the “borsch set”. Of these, the highest price will rise for potatoes and onions. “All potatoes are infected with the disease. Cutting it, you can see dark spots inside,” says a farmer from Nikolaev. “Vegetables began to rot massively. The crop deteriorates and farmers lose their income, so the cost of potatoes quickly increased. In addition, carrots and cabbage also lose their marketable view. As a result, wholesalers buy them without hunting. The cost of vegetables is also affected by the increase in fuel prices. Previously, transport costs were spent on 85 kopecks per kilogram of products, and now - 1.3 hryvnia. trichestvo and rent of the building was significantly increased in price the storage of vegetables in vegetable stores. The peak price increase will fall in Marchwhen the cost of a kilogram of potatoes is about 8 hryvnia. The price of onions will reach 10 hryvnia".
“Potatoes in Ukraine are not enough. Last year they planted less. Still, farmers saved on planting material. The crop turned out to be of poor quality, which led to the need to sell vegetables until December,” comments Tatiana Getman, a specialist in the fruit and vegetable market. Currently, it costs 4.3 hryvnas per kilogram, but over the week, the cost has increased by 15% and will only increase further, and you should not hope for cheap imported vegetables from other countries. In Poland and Belarus, the cost of potatoes is still high. Eurasia retail prices for this vegetable have all chances to reach 12-16 hryvnia per kilogram. "
