The article provides an overview of the autumn raspberry market in Poland and Ukraine. In Poland, wholesale prices have remained relatively stable, with a slight increase from last year's range of PLN 25.00 to PLN 35.00 per kilogram to a high of PLN 40.00 per kilogram, but have since fallen below PLN 20.00 per kilogram. Overall, prices have been similar to previous years.
In contrast, Ukraine has seen record high wholesale prices for autumn raspberries, with a significant increase of around 310% compared to last year, ranging from PLN 24.00 to PLN 33.00 per kilogram (UAH 250-350/kg). This increase is attributed to lower production and rising apple prices. However, the unstable trade and price fluctuations in Poland and Ukraine's agricultural markets pose a challenge for fruit growers, with prices in Ukraine being the highest in the past seven years. The article highlights the differences in market stability between Poland, Ukraine, and the older EU countries.
