Price Dynamics for Vegetables
In the greens segment, the only change affected green onions, which have significantly increased in price: their upper price limit jumped from 125 to 200 hryvnias per kilogram. Other types of greens have remained within previous price ranges.
The second consecutive weekly trend is the gradual decrease in the price of bulb onions. According to analysts, the maximum price for this vegetable has decreased from 12 to 10 hryvnias per kilogram. The increase in the supply of white cabbage has also contributed to a decrease in its cost – sellers are now offering it at prices ranging from 8 to 12 hryvnias per kilogram, whereas previously the range was 9–17 UAH/kg.

The price range for cucumbers has also narrowed – from the previous 25–75 UAH/kg to 35–50 UAH/kg.
At the same time, zucchini and eggplants have become more expensive. For instance, the price of zucchini has risen from 10–22 to 18–45 hryvnias per kilogram, while eggplants have increased from 25–35 to 38–45 hryvnias.
