In the Russian market there is a real collapse in the price of tomatoes. Several factors provoked this state of affairs. One of them is large volumes of import supplies.

In addition, cheaper tomatoes were also affected by the fact that new batches of products are actively ripening at Russian tomato-growing enterprises.

Together with the growing supply of foreign (Azerbaijani, Turkish and Iranian) tomatoes in retail outlets of the Russian Federation, which, by the way, cost the consumer almost the same price as domestic vegetables, the collapse of tomato prices is happening at an enviable rate.

According to market analysts, today Russian farmers sell their tomatoes in the wholesale and retail markets at an average price of eighty rubles (depending on the region, the lower limit is sixty rubles per kilo, the upper limit is one hundred rubles for the same volume). And this is almost sixteen percent lower than a week earlier.

For clarity, we note that a kilogram of imported tomatoes costs 65-100 rubles to the Russian consumer (the price varies depending on the region of sales).

And this is almost fifteen percent cheaper than the indicators that were recorded in the previous week.
