Recent frosts have caused significant losses in Serbia's fruit crops, leading to an expensive fruit season with high prices for raspberries and apricots. The Raspberry and Blackberry Producers Association expects both growers and processors to incur losses and high prices for the first harvest. Apricot prices are projected to exceed 300 dinars (11.60 PLN / kg) due to low yields. Although there are losses in early cherry varieties, the slightly later Oblačinska variety has not been affected, and prices and production are expected to remain stable from last year. Economists believe that while price increases are inevitable due to low yields, the market and imports will help mitigate the impact.
