"Spanish supply will begin putting Belgian tomato prices under pressure this week"
The Belgian greenhouse vegetable season is slowly coming to an end. The switch to lit cultivation is underway, so volumes are generally slightly lower these weeks. "We're now in bell pepper, zucchini, and eggplant's last weeks. The large cucumber volumes are also gone. Like tomatoes, we'll switch there, so we'll have them continuously in the coming months," says BelOrta's Benny Cuypers.
