Domestic greenhouse vegetables in the markets and supermarkets in Russia are becoming less and less. The same indicators show the prices of tomatoes from Russian greenhouses.

“It got colder, and farmers immediately increased the cost of greenhouse vegetables, because even in greenhouses, cucumbers and tomatoes ripen much more slowly during severe colds,” economic experts comment on the situation. - And if a week ago they could make no more than 120 rubles per kilogram of cucumbers, and give a kilo of tomatoes for 110 rubles, today the situation has changed significantly: cucumbers on most retail space are sold at a price of 120-135 rubles per kilogram package, and the cost of tomatoes soared to 120 rubles / kg. "

Buyers complain that farmers' supply of greenhouse vegetables is growing thinner every week. Some farmers even announced that they suspend the sale of cucumbers and tomatoes grown in closed ground. Experts do not exclude that farmers hold the goods until the time when prices for these products reach their peak.

As for imported greenhouse products, a kilogram of foreign cucumber (mainly from Turkey and Iran) will cost the Russians an average of 80-85 rubles.
