The Ukrainian market today has a rather limited supply of high-quality white cabbage. At the same time, selling prices in this segment continue to grow rapidly. This is reported by EastFruit analysts. Thus, if last week Ukrainian farmers announced prices for high-quality white cabbage from 22 UAH/kg ($0.52/kg), then as of December 20, farms are ready to sell this product for 25-35 UAH/kg ($0.60-0.84/kg), which is on average 16% more expensive than at the end of the last working week. Analysts note that the supply of white cabbage on the market is quite limited, since many farms prefer not to rush into sales, because they do not exclude that prices for this product may continue to grow in the coming weeks. At the same time, wholesale companies show a very high interest in purchasing cabbage and are ready to increase purchase prices.
