In Ukraine, for the second week in a row, there is an increase in the price of last year's cabbage. The reason for this price trend is that the supply of cabbage from the 2022 crop continues to decline rapidly, while the mass supply of this product of the new crop has not yet begun.. This was reported by analysts of the EastFruit project..
Experts noted that demand in this segment remains quite high, which allows farmers to further increase the price of their products..

So, as of May 2, Ukrainian farmers were selling last year's white cabbage for 25-30 UAH/kg ($0.68-0.82//kg), which is 22% more expensive than a week earlier on average..
Market players explain the increase in cabbage prices by the shortage of this product.
Thus, most Ukrainian producers have already completed the sales season, and the rest offer for sale the remaining batches of cabbage from last year's harvest..
Analysts stressed that now prices for cabbage are on average 1.5 times higher than at the beginning of May last year.. At the same time, many market players do not exclude that the upward price trend in this segment will continue further..
