"Leek prices down after smooth summer sales"
After smooth summer sales, Dutch leek prices dipped recently. "That's unfortunate. Exports were good all summer. There's not a huge supply, yet prices show a downward trend. Earlier this week, it was at around €0.50; with that, we're genuinely short. We need no less than €0.60 to cover the costs," says Kees Jansen of the cultivation and packaging company Gebroeders Jansen.
