According to the information of “APK-Inform: fruit and vegetables”, the decline of apple trade prices in 1.5 hryvnias per kg, that had passed in the Ukrainian market last week, has activated the interest of the Russian importers to the Ukrainian production. These price updates have permitted to make the Ukrainian apple more competitive in the Russian market and to increase the volumes of export shipments.
At the moment the apple trade price at the Ukrainian market is almost by half lower than in the Russian market. That’s why the Ukrainian producers have also started searching for new purchasers in the neighbouring country.
