Strawberry prices have started to fall in Ukraine
Strawberries
On the Ukrainian market this week, wholesale prices for strawberries from local farms began to fall due to an increase in supply from producers in the western regions.

This is according to EastFruit.

Demand for strawberries remains subdued, so in a competitive market, growers are forced to gradually lower prices for this perishable produce.

Just a week ago, farmers were refusing to sell greenhouse strawberries for less than 200–260 UAH per kilogram. However, at the start of this week, when the harvest of berries from polytunnel greenhouses began in the southern and western regions, wholesale prices immediately fell by 14%, to 170–230 UAH per kilogram.

At the same time, current strawberry prices in Ukraine remain on average 32% higher than in the same period last year, analysts note.

According to EastFruit, the supply of local strawberries on the market has not yet reached peak levels, with a more widespread harvest expected as early as the beginning of next month.

‘Zelensky’s Thousand’ in doubt: the IMF’s condition for the Pension Fund of Ukraine

Ukraine has agreed not to impose any new unscheduled expenditure on the Pension Fund in excess of the budgetary limit without prior consultation with the International Monetary Fund. This condition may complicate the introduction of new one-off payments, but does not cancel pensions or the annual indexation.

Gas and electricity tariffs for households in Ukraine are set to rise from 2027 – a memorandum with the IMF

Ukraine may begin a gradual increase in gas and electricity tariffs for households as early as 2027. This scenario is set out in the updated Memorandum on Economic and Financial Policies, which the Ukrainian authorities have agreed with the IMF. However, no final decision has yet been made – the document itself does not imply an automatic increase in tariffs.
