The start of the South African summer rainy season and cooler weather have led to a decrease in the supply of potatoes, onions, tomatoes, and bananas, resulting in higher prices on the wholesale markets. The price of potatoes is at € 4.17 / 10 kg, and there is concern about consumer opposition to this price level. Sweet potato prices have seen the most significant increase, rising 168% compared to the same period last year.

Parts of Letaba, a district where avocados, subtropical fruit, and citrus are grown, have seen beneficial spring rainfall.
