Tridge summary
As of April 1, 2024, Italy's fruit and vegetable market is experiencing several shifts, including the conclusion of the Tarocco orange and Violetto artichoke campaigns, and the introduction of new potatoes and Sfusato lemons from the Amalfi Coast. Onion prices are expected to rise due to a shortage of Italian production and delayed foreign arrivals. Strawberry prices are notably high due to reduced supply and high quality from regions like Basilicata and Campania. Post-Easter, there's a decreased demand for asparagus and Romanesco artichokes, leading to lower prices, while a shortage of Italian yellow-fleshed potatoes has caused a price increase. Pepper prices are high due to a smaller harvest, though lower than last year thanks to higher winter production from Sicily and Spain. Radicchio prices have risen, particularly for the Tondo rosso and Lungo Precoce varieties, due to lower availability. These market dynamics are captured in a price survey from the Italian Telematic Commodity Exchange (Bmti) and Italmercati, covering major markets across Italy.
