Strawberry prices continue to fall in Poland, mostly due to a seasonal increase in the supply, reports APK-Inform: Vegetables and Fruits. Prices are also under pressure due to the presence on the market of imported strawberries from Spain.





As a result, over the past weekend alone, local strawberries on the Polish market have fallen in price by an average of 40%. Producers are currently willing to close sales for 3.5-8 złoty/kg (0.81-1.86 Euro/kg), depending on the grade and quality.





It should be noted that as a result of such adjustments, the prices for strawberries in Poland at the moment are on average 38% lower than in the same period last year, and are at one of the lowest points within the past 5 years. At the same time, most market players expect further price reductions, since the open-ground season has only just started gaining momentum.
