Brazil: Tomato prices register high in all wholesale

Published 2022년 12월 2일

Tridge summary

This week has seen a drastic decrease in the supply of tomatoes due to the conclusion of harvests in Araguari (MG) and Sumaré (SP), the main winter producers, and slower fruit maturation caused by overcast weather. As a result, prices have surged in all central markets, with significant increases observed at Ceagesp (SP), Campinas (SP), Belo Horizonte (MG), and Rio de Janeiro (RJ).

It is anticipated that the offer will increase in December, following the pick-up pace of the summer harvest.
