Manage episode 495032426 series 2098285
The recent wild weather in Nelson-Tasman could push up the price of our produce.
Growers faced weeks of heavy rain and flooding that's damaged infrastructure, affected harvests, and disrupted supply chains.
There are concerns about saturated soils meaning growers can’t plant new crops, affecting vegetables like broccoli, lettuces, and spinach.
Vegetables NZ Chair John Murphy told Heather du Plessis-Allan the market responds quickly to shortages.
He says we will see prices grow marginally.
