Germany: meagre prices for peaches

In week 34 in the German wholesale market there were slightly less peaches than in the week prior. Most of the peaches came from Spain and Italy, but there were also peaches from France, Greece and Turkey on the market. Demand was lower due to the bad weather and the prices were not high. The lack of export is being blamed on Russia.
