Tridge summary

Polish fruit growers are concerned about the large imports of cherries from countries such as Serbia, Hungary, and Moldova, as the wholesale prices are not satisfying and the domestic harvest is expected to be lower than the previous year. Due to the early start of vegetation, the domestic cherry offer in early June is richer. The quality and prices of the domestic and imported cherries vary greatly. The supply of Burlat, a variety not cultivated on large areas, will decrease, and the quality of Summit, a popular variety, is not as good as Kordia or Regina. There are concerns about the risk of alienating consumers with underripe or overripe fruits due to harvesting too early.
