Considering the trade, little is happening with organic potatoes. As in recent times, work is proceeding quietly and there is little demand. However, the offer is also the same. The grower is calmer and feels little pressure or need to do business at the moment. The nervousness of recent times has pretty much disappeared. However, the indicative price does not appear to be heading towards a level starting with a 5 for the time being, which many are waiting for. The DCA Indicative Price for organic potatoes takes a step back at the top end and amounts to €37 to €42 per 100 kilos.

As calm as it is with the potatoes, it is also the same with the organic onions. To date, very little has been recorded and even now this rarely happens. Importers are reacting expectantly, although it is noticeable that they are curious about the onions. In any case, it doesn't make the grower nervous. The DCA Indication Price for organic onions remains unchanged and amounts to €30 to €33 per 100 kilos.

Healthy question carrot
Organic carrots occasionally increase in price this season, but not this week. There is healthy supply and demand for carrots and it is certain that the kilos per hectare are simply less than previously expected. The grower therefore feels confident and is cautiously informed about the storage season. Growers seem to be giving the storage season a chance despite the storage costs. To date, this has not led to spectacular prizes. The DCA Indication Price for organic carrots takes a small step back at the top end and amounts to €37 to €42 per 100 kilos.
