Early Potato Season Commences in Ukraine: Market Prices Decline
Agrico Ukraine Reports Early Harvest and Market Trends in Mykolayiv and Odessa Regions
Agrico Ukraine has announced the beginning of the early potato season in Ukraine, marked by the recent visits of their advisers to potato growers in the Mykolayiv and Odessa regions. The early potatoes, planted between March 5th and 10th, have already been harvested manually and are now being sold at local markets.
This year’s early harvest signals a promising start for Ukrainian potato farmers. However, despite the initial positive outlook, market prices have been experiencing a downward trend, with prices dropping each week. The current farm-gate price for early potatoes stands at 1.27 Euros per kilogram.
