Prices for sugar and cabbage are showing a steady decline this year. This was confirmed by experts interviewed by Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
As a leading expert of the Institute for Agricultural Market Studies (IKAR) Yevgeny Ivanov told RG reporters, wholesale sugar prices in the country are declining throughout the year. In December, they can, according to expert forecasts, decrease by 2018% compared to the last month of 30.
Alexey Sitnikov, President of the Greenhouses of Russia Association, is convinced that a good harvest of white cabbage harvested this year will lead to a significant decrease in prices for this product. Rosstat data show that cabbage is now already 20% cheaper compared to the end of the previous year. Sitnikov is convinced that similar dynamics will develop for some other vegetables.
