PRICES LOW

Prices for the fresh produce took a dip in the January and February period.

Prices had previously been buoyant leading up to the festive period, but as usual a slump in demand has stymied hopes of the good prices lasting.

It seems as though this is the time of year that could most do with a produce promotion boost.
