The price of domestic broccoli in South Korea has surged by 27.6% compared to last year, reaching 32,664 won for an 8 kg box at Garak Market in Seoul.

Additionally, the price of Chinese broccoli has also contributed to the rise in domestic broccoli prices, due to increased labor costs and sea freight rates. Predictions for the future price trend are mixed, with some forecasting a steady increase until broccoli shipments start in the Chungcheong region in May, while others anticipate a decline due to potential quality issues.
