Potato prices continued their seasonal slide over the past week as harvest progressed and poorer quality processing material was brought straight to the market. The Potato Council’s GB weekly average price was down to £110.24/t last week, some £10/t down on the previous week and slightly below the £114/t at the same time last year.
“It’s fairly normal for prices to fall at this time of year as there’s a lot of material coming onto the market,” the Potato Council’s Denis Alder said.
