Gooseberry producers in Poland are experiencing varied purchase prices for their crop this season, ranging from 0.60 PLN to 1.00 PLN per kilogram. Both domestic processing plants and intermediaries are making these purchases for local use and export to the western border. Unusually for this season, many intermediaries are offering to pick up the fruit directly from the plantation for a higher price of 0.80 to 1.00 PLN per kilogram, which they then deliver to German processing plants. Despite the increased demand this season, producers feel that the purchase prices do not reflect the demand and note a significant increase in exports to the West.
