The first three goods to see the highest increase are fresh grapes by 83.98%, tomatoes by 80.62 % and cauliflower by 64.56%.

According to lgc news inflation is running at 11.8 % which is no surprise . The above increases seem dramatic ! I have just bought some grapes and cauliflower i have to admit i didnt check the price . If i had read this hefore i would have checked the price .

Does anybody know why these items have gone up by so much ? Also if such high Prices will persist or actually exists . Maybe its seasonal ?

On the flipside and good news fresh broad beans have gone down by 21.69 % so will have to swap my grapes and cauliflower for them in future

Good news is it should all be better soon. So many new fields being ploughed now the Turkish water has come on stream. They'll be paying us to take it away.
