Cucumber prices: Rising prices in Europe

The main reason for the price increase is the rains and floods that hit the Iberian Peninsula, which delayed shipments to Spain. Experts say this situation is temporary, as there are not enough quantities coming from other regions to have a lasting impact on prices. Cucumber prices are already falling on the Spanish market, which gives hope for a normalization of prices.

At the Budapest Wholesale Market, the price per kilogram of domestic, Class I snake cucumbers was between 650-750 forints at the beginning of November, with a slight increase.
