Onion buyer PPA is satisfied with the result achieved by the ashore pool for yellow and red seed onions. Looking at the stock exchange listings in Goes and Emmeloord, it speaks of a handsome and neat price.
The result is in stark contrast to last season, when yellow reached over €30 and red €45. That the market is very different in the current season is once again evident. PPA charges €10,92 for the yellow onions and €20,02 for the red onions. That is including compensation and after deduction of the pool costs. The farm pools ran from week 34 to week 40.
Above market price
The result of yellow onions is just above the average of the stock market prices Emmeloord and Goes, during the harvest period. That comes to €10,07. The PPA pool for yellow onions comes to an average of €17,30 after seven harvest years. For red that is €23,60.
Extension
For the coming year, the South Holland buyer hopes for more onions. Both existing and new onion growers can register for the ashore pool and the storage pool.
