Large asparagus range, strawberries currently relatively expensive

‘Badischer Markt currently has an excellent range’

The growers and marketers in the important cultivation region Südbaden are currently hard at work. Regional asparagus is currently in its peak season and the strawberries are also starting to come in. "The market is very well supplied," said the managing director of the fruit and vegetable sales cooperative Nordbaden (UCI) Hans Lehar.

Due to the weather, asparagus also grows very fast, with high-quality stems from the Baden fields. This has accordingly its effects on the price level: regional asparagus is currently offered between 2.50 and 3.00 euros per 500 grams.


CEO Hans Lehar of the OGA Nordbaden eG

In addition, Baden strawberries are gradually finding their way to market trading. For two weeks, there are already low inflows from tunnels. However, these early strawberries are still relatively expensive: currently a 500 -gram tray still costs between 3.00 and 4.50 euros. Lehar: "The quality is very good, the fruits are beautiful and very big.”
