Low demand for apples and increased supply of these fruits of autumn varieties are forcing Ukrainian gardeners to reduce selling prices in this segment, according to analysts of the EastFruit project. It should be noted that this trend has been observed on the Ukrainian market for the third week in a row.
Thus, currently, high-quality varietal apples go on sale at a price of 12-18 UAH/kg ($0.29-0.44/kg), which is on average 15% cheaper than at the end of the last working week.
As of today, apples of autumn varieties that are not suitable for storage are mostly on sale, so growers are trying to sell them as a matter of priority and reduce the cut-off prices for these products.
It should be noted that as of today, the price of apples in Ukraine has actually dropped to the level of prices in the same period last year.
