Moscow, Russia: prices of Polish apples down by a third year-on-year
The Russian market participants say of a decrease in prices of Polish apples offered in Moscow by a third compared with the mid-July 2013.
For the present, Gloster apples of Polish origin are sold in Moscow at 0.68-0.72 euro/kg, a decrease of 27-30% year-on-year.
Prices of Idared apples vary between 0.56-0.70 euro/kg, a decrease of 27-37% compared with the same period of the previous season.
