The demand for higher quality products has made vegetables more expensive

Fórián Zoltán, Senior Agricultural Expert of the Erste Agricultural Competence Center told Világgazgaság about why vegetables have become more expensive this year – origo wrote.

The increase in demand for higher-quality products is causing higher vegetable prices than last year, not the crop shortages – Világgazdaság wrote on Friday.
According to the expert, this higher price is relative because producers’ costs are rising: they have to comply with the rules, the needs of purchasers, they have to develop, invest, and later robotize. (origo)
