Severe weather, frost, heavy rains hit Ukraine’s fruit, vegetable harvest
Journal Staff Report

KYIV, May 26 – The adverse weather conditions in Ukraine in early April and the middle of May, which came amid frost, excessive rainfall and low air temperatures, affected the situation in the fruit and vegetable sector of the country, which led to difficulties in pricing, harvesting and the quality of manufacturers' products, Development Director at the Ukrainian Horticultural Association Kateryna Zvereva has said.

"Thus, adverse weather conditions, which came amid rains and a drop in air temperature to 5 degrees below zero, observed in early May, caused decrease in the supply of greenhouse tomatoes and cucumbers. For example, weather conditions led to a decrease in the sampling volume of cucumber in Ukrainian greenhouses, which allowed sellers to increase previously set prices immediately by 50% in early May," she told Interfax-Ukraine.
