There is a spike in carrot prices in Ukraine
As the New Year approaches, high-quality carrots are in high demand in the Ukrainian market, driving up their prices, according to the EastFruit. Another factor behind the rising demand is the end of sales of this root crop from unprepared storages.
Currently, local farms are shipping carrots at 10-14 UAH/kg ($0.27-0.38/kg), which is about 20% higher than the previous week.
