Tridge summary

The article provides an overview of the current market situation for various agricultural products in Italy as of October 18, 2022. It discusses the progress of campaigns for persimmons, chestnuts, and pears, noting stable prices for vanilla persimmons but higher prices for Spanish apple persimmons due to increased transport costs. The chestnut industry has seen a decrease in prices compared to the previous year, though a price increase is expected with the introduction of the Marroni variety. Lettuce prices have slightly decreased but remain high due to increased production and cooler weather conditions.

The article also mentions that demand for Italian pears is still low, with imports of Decana Comizio from Holland at lower prices than last year. The transition period for Italian tomatoes is causing a shortage and increased prices, while green tomatoes are experiencing a demand shift to red varieties, leading to high prices. Despite increased production, aubergine prices are falling due to greenhouse production in various regions. Good production of Italian pumpkins results in rising prices due to increased production costs. Courgette markets are seeing increased quantities but high prices, attributed to production delays and increased operating costs.
