The cost of early vegetables is set to increase due to logistical challenges. The blockage at the Ukrainian-Polish border could delay European goods, while the tense security situation in the Black Sea could raise the price of vegetables from Egypt and Israel. These transportation issues are also expected to reduce the total volume of goods. However, the high prices for citrus fruits may drop if exports from Egypt are redirected from Asia to Europe due to the Red Sea blockade by the Houthis.
