From February, you can get almost exclusively imported potatoes
The National Potato Association and Product Council (OBTT) warned in November that the domestic potato stock should last from autumn 2022 to June 2023, but it is feared that this will not be the case – they were right. Hungary now relies almost entirely on imports.
Until now, Hungary has had to import potatoes, mainly from the Netherlands, Germany, France and Ireland. However, due to last year’s extreme weather, the potato harvest has decreased throughout Europe, and there is a shortage of potatoes.
At the beginning of January, there were Hungarian items in the stores, but they were completely sold out in the first half of February, which means that a complete change in the store’s offer can now be expected. Also, the end of May – beginning of June may be the earliest period when Hungarian potatoes can appear in stores again – Haszon.hu points out.
