The Hungarian onion growers will fight with the imports
The harvest of onions has begun in Hungary. Last year’s Hungarian onions have already ran out of stocks already January, but in the coming months, domestic goods will re-enter markets and shops.
Currently, only about 50-60 percent of annual consumption can be covered by Hungarian onion cultivation, which has fallen significantly since the change of regime. Domestic producers ¬– with the professional support of the National Chamber of Agricultural Economics (NAK) – want to improve their future imports; this requires, among other things, technological improvements, proper variety selection and storage capacity. In Hungary, the annual onion consumption is about 10-12 kg / person.
