"Last two weeks sees chicory market improve"
Many offers
"There is a lot of production over the whole season," explained Rudi. "We have seen many offers so the question is if we should have one too. The quality of the chicory presently is extremely good. Over the last two weeks the price has risen to a higher level, close to a euro for good quality loose chicory. Today it was 80-85 cent. Packaged chicory is always above this. The products we export to America are always at the higher level. Around this time of year there is usually good demand for chicory and we sell well. I don't see the prices falling much further and I hope that for the growers as they've had a difficult year, especially in the summer when it was really hard."
