On the trading floors of Russia, the cost of cabbage continues to grow. In particular, white cabbage is becoming more expensive, the price of which today reaches about 30 rubles per kilogram. A week ago, the figure on cabbage price tags was 7% lower.

“Cabbage is in great demand, while farmers have less and less cabbage in their warehouses,” market analysts say. “They specifically raise prices and are in no hurry to sell all stocks in order to stretch and increase profits for last season's cabbage as long as possible!”

It is noteworthy that the price of white cabbage has been growing steadily over the past two months. And farmers note that in 2018 the yield of this crop throughout the country was much less than in 2017, which was facilitated by adverse weather conditions in the Russian Federation.

“Today, the real supply of cabbage in the market does not match the volume of demand,” analysts say. “This suggests that the cost of Russian cabbage will continue to grow.”
