FruitVeb: the cucumber season starts, dealers only purchase domestic products
Last week, the Spanish cucumber essentially disappeared from the shelves of the Hungarian stores. In mid-May the domestic cucumber season started, and since then, traders have purchased only domestic prioducts – told Mártonffy Béla, President of FruitVeb.
Hungary produces about 45 to 50 thousand tons of cucumber each year on average. The volume of annual import exceeds more than ten thousand tons (According to the Central Statistical Office; in 2009, it was 14 thousand tons), and roughly a third may come from Spain, but this datas are not accurate – reports Népszabadság Online.
