Bad weather causes French cauliflower prices to plummet by 38%

Conditions for the 2016-2017 cauliflower season have been bad due to heavy rain in the spring, lack of water over the summer and frost in the winter. As a consequence, the harvest has decreased.

The 2016-2017 season started last June and it is expected to have decreased by 16% compared to 2015-2016 and 24% compared to the five year average.

Prices remained stable from June to January but Breton production hit the shelves in February and prices plummeted. They even went below the five year average for the first time, falling by 38%.
