Tridge summary
The article reports on the current market trends for potatoes and cereal crops in the Goes and Emmeloord regional exchanges. It highlights a significant increase in the price per 100 kilos for chip potatoes, with the Innovator variety commanding 12 euros more than the standard Fontane variety. Prices for chip potatoes and those suitable for fresh chips have risen, with similar increases seen in neighboring countries, although Belgapom continues to list Fontane at a lower price. The article also notes a surge in wheat and barley prices, with a new quotation increase of 8 euros per tonne, attributed to a shipping incident that caused a blockage in the Mosel lock, leading to higher purchase costs and preventing supply stagnation. The quotation committee's decision has resulted in a notable price rise for cereals in the Groningen grain exchange compared to the previous year.
