UK crop's "average" assessment hinges on harvest success and demand

Market dynamics indicate a stable consumption pattern with positive demand noted. In the UK, agricultural operators are progressing with the harvest as conditions permit, amidst expectations of diminished yields for crops sown at later stages. The forecast of colder night temperatures this week poses additional challenges for these later planted crops, potentially hindering their development.

The overall assessment of the UK crop leans towards an "average" rating, with the final season's results heavily reliant on the forthcoming harvest and market demand. This week, quality concerns have been primarily attributed to elevated bruising levels, alongside notable instances of greening leading to increased waste deductions.

On a broader scale, seed production within Europe is anticipated to meet the requirements for the 2025 planting season. This projection is supported by an expansion in cultivated areas and favorable conditions for tuber formation.
