AU: Consumers to expect cheap asparagus

Victorian asparagus growers say consumers should expect good quality asparagus at cheaper prices this Spring. About 90 per cent of Australia's asparagus is grown east of Melbourne, near Koo Wee Rup.

Vice President of the Asparagus Growers Council, Alex Motta, says warmer soil temperatures have brought an early start to the harvest. "If we get good quantity and quality I think the farmers will do ok. And I think the consumers will do very well this year."

"There's a big crop than we've had the last couple of years, so that can only mean more in the stores and probably cheaper prices than we've seen in the last couple of years."
