The production costs of Estonian tomatoes and cucumbers have increased by several dozen percent. The sale price of cucumbers, however, has been dropping, and initially, high tomato prices have returned to last year's level. Sources claim that, even if producers should want to increase prices, they cannot, as consumers wouldn't be able to afford them anymore.
Several Estonian growers are faced with the same issue: while input prices are up, they can't increase the prices of their own final product. On the contrary, in some places, cucumbers are currently being sold 5 percent cheaper than last year.
