Domestic garlic is running out
Experts say that because of the drought 15-20 percent less garlic was grown in 2015 than in the year before, because this plant is essentially produced around Makó without irrigation.
According to the Agricultural Research Institute, in consumer markets in Budapest, the price per kilo of domestic garlic ha increased. In the first seven weeks of 2016 it was between 980-1130 HUF. In the observed Hungarian chains the Hungarian garlic was offered at a 13 percent higher price (1460 HUF) than a year ago, while the average price of Chinese import products rose by 25 percent to 1206 HUF in the period under review.
