Potato System magazine publishes a daily report on the situation in the table potato market. We receive information about prices and harvesting progress from agricultural producers from different regions of Russia.
More and more agrarians refuse to sell their products at a clearly underestimated price. By setting their own price tag, potato growers wait patiently until a buyer is ready to evaluate the quality of their product. The number of large transactions is not so large, so many have focused on small wholesale and retail trade.
Producers manage to continue selling tubers at prices that compare favorably with those announced on the wholesale market. If the dealers' offers vary from 8 to 15 rubles, then an independent sale brings farmers up to 27 rubles per kilogram of potatoes.
As of December 28, 2022, table potatoes in batches of 20 tons or more were sold in Russia at prices ranging from 8 to 23,50 rubles per kilogram.
The cheapest tubers could be purchased in the Republic of Buryatia (8,00 rubles/kg) and the Kemerovo region (8,33 rubles/kg).
A little more was given for potatoes in the Irkutsk, Kaluga and Sverdlovsk regions, in the republics of Udmurtia (13,00 rubles / kg), Tatarstan (13,50 rubles / kg) and Karachay-Cherkessia, in the Krasnoyarsk Territory, Vologda, Nizhny Novgorod (14,00 14,50 rub./kg), Ulyanovsk (14,67 rub./kg) and Tver (XNUMX rub./kg) regions.
