Stores ran out of domestic potatoes

Hungarian potatoes were sold out of the shops almost completely, so the needs were mostly covered from imports by the merchants – the member of the Board of the National Potato Alliance and Product Council told who also reported that in the last two months further lower price increases followed the 66 percent price increase of the past year.
