Romania. Cherry prices soar
25.05.2017
In Romania hail and frost severely affected cherry production, causing about 50% loss of crops. This decrease in volumes leads to a sharp rise in prices.
Consumer prices are already close to 5 times the levels seen in a normal year. Some imported cherries are even more expensive.
These price increases could subside in a few weeks with the massive arrivals of cherries from Greece where an abundant volume is expected, from Bulgaria and Hungary.
