The producer price of Hungarian strawberries on the Budapest Wholesale Market has increased by 7% compared to the same period last year, according to the Market Price Information System (PÁIR). The price fluctuated throughout the year, with the highest being HUF 3,800/kilogram in the 15th week and the lowest being HUF 1,800/kilogram in the 20th week, which was 20% more expensive than the previous year but 20% cheaper than the previous week. The most common gross price per kilogram of imported strawberries from Greece was HUF 1,600 in the 20th week, which was 60% more expensive than the previous year. The Agricultural Economics Institute (AKI) expects a 30% decrease in the strawberry harvest compared to the same period last year, but believes that the season can be extended and the crops lost in early spring can be compensated.
