"Apple prices have eventually begun rising again"
There seemed to be no end to the European apple market's woes. However, the season's end is becoming an unexpected bright spot. "We've been more optimistic these last few weeks. Demand is picking up, and prices, too, have risen slightly. They're not yet optimal, but it's vital that we keep clearing stock," says Laurent De Smedt, the Belgian cooperative BelOrta's top fruit division head.
