The beginning of the week was marked for the Russian market by a sharp rise in prices for cabbage.

In just a few days, the cost of white-skinned rose by 7%. Experts are sure: rising prices for this product provokes an unprecedented excitement around cabbage among consumers. This situation has been observed in Russia since mid-autumn.

A few days ago on Russian trading floors, a kilogram of cabbage cost buyers 14 rubles. Today, the cost of this product soared to 16-25 rubles for the same weight. The price varies depending on the region where the cabbage grew, and on its variety.

Experts noted that today, cabbage (both white and red cabbage, as well as Beijing and kohlrabi) is almost the most popular product on Russian vegetable stalls. In any case, from the so-called “borsch set”, it is cabbage that occupies the most stable positions in the daily price increase.

“And this despite the fact that the demand for cabbage is quite high, the supply cannot cover the cabbage requests of Russians,” market analysts assure. “And the point is not that salesmen and farmers do not have cabbage in warehouses.” She is! And in considerable quantities. Just sellers are sure that prices for this culture will continue to grow steadily. Therefore, there will certainly be an opportunity to sell white-and-white at times more expensive! ”
