No recovery is expected this year in the canned and frozen vegetables sector

This year, experts do not expect a rise in the cultivation of sweet corn, green peas and green beans that are mainly sold on export markets.

The decrease is due to the weakening of the foreign demand. Hungary's abilities are outstanding in this sector: Hungary’s sweet corn-growing area is the largest in Europe and the pea acreage is among the large ones – said Pereczes János, head of Syngenta's vegetable seed division.
