Apple Prices in Ukraine Surge 50% WoW due to Strong Demand for Processing

In Ukrainian apple markets, Gala apple prices skyrocketed by 50% WoW in W42, reaching USD 0.42/kg. This surge results from a challenging seasonal harvest and increased demand for processing apples. Compared to the previous year, prices are up by 69%, driven by various factors, including lower apple production and quality, geopolitical tensions affecting exports, reduced European Union apple production, and rising demand for apple processing.
