Strawberry prices have risen slightly in purchasing and processing plants, but there is no competition among processors for raw materials. Expected intense rainfall may hasten the end of the ground harvest season, impacting fruit quality and supply. Despite recent price hikes, the rates are insufficient to ensure profits and investment opportunities. The market shows higher prices for freezing strawberries (PLN 4.60 - 4.80/kg) and pressed strawberries (PLN 3.20 - 3.30/kg), but heavy rainfall could lower prices for pressed strawberries due to increased hydration and reduced sugar content.
