Food price increase in Hungary only under inflation

Demand for cheaper food will grow, it could increase the market share of retail branded products, according to AgrárMonitor, a quarterly report on Hungarian agriculture, issued by Agrár Európa Kft. and Kopint-Tárki.

food prices decreased in November 2008, specialists forecasted same
situation for 2009. It is not the best news for growers because the
production costs also will increase this year.
