Watermelon season has started in Ukraine

01.08.2023 13:51

This week, Ukrainian farmers and producers started shipping the first really large batches of this berry from our farms and farms.

Analysts from the EasyFruit portal report that this year the sale of this crop started a week earlier compared to 2022, but at the same time the first batches of berries are sold at much higher prices than last year.

Today, the cost of 1 kilogram of watermelon ranges from 18 hryvnias to 28 hryvnias, and this indicator is on average 60% more than last year. According to the main producers and suppliers, such prices are primarily due to the fact that the products are not supplied with the key Kherson region, which is the leader in our country in the cultivation of this melon culture.

Experts also note that a wider and mass sale of products will begin soon from the beginning of this month, due to which the price may drop significantly due to the saturation of the market from local farms and farms.
