The market sees the entry of Kaiser Emilian pears, and prices for white Italia and Pizzutello grapes have risen due to decreased production and a shift towards seedless varieties. Italian tomatoes, especially Piccadilly and Datterini, are priced high, whereas increased production of white cauliflowers is causing prices to drop, notably in Rome. The article also discusses the impact of adverse weather on crops in Emilia-Romagna, Sicily, and Lazio, affecting production levels and prices, particularly for courgettes.
