Experts expect that by the New Year in Russia, the cost of some vegetables will increase by almost a quarter. First of all, this will affect greenhouse crops: tomatoes, peppers, eggplants and others. The price increase will be affected by the rise in the cost of fuel needed to heat greenhouses, and the traditional pre-holiday hype. In addition, the growing price tag for cucumbers and tomatoes is associated with low localization of seed production in the country. Many Russian farmers still buy them abroad, and the calculation is made in dollars.
