Minimum 2024 support price for box of bananas set at $6.85 in Ecuador
The new 2024 minimum support price for a box of bananas was set in Ecuador at $6.85 between producers and exporters yesterday. This follows after two previous rounds of negotiations failed to reach an agreement, while producers are said to not be happy, exporters were hoping not to increase from this year’s price of $6.50, but common ground had to be found.
