Triple Threat: Weather, Plant-Based Diets, and Brexit Drive up Cabbage Prices
The sharp price increase has been attributed to a combination of factors, including weather conditions that have affected crop yields, increased demand due to a growing popularity of plant-based diets, and supply chain disruptions caused by Brexit.
Farmers have reported lower yields due to heatwaves and droughts, which have impacted cabbage growth. Furthermore, with more people adopting plant-based diets, there has been greater demand for cabbage and other vegetables, which has pushed up prices.
Lastly, the UK's departure from the EU has caused supply chain disruptions, particularly in the movement of goods, and this has led to a knock-on effect on prices. As a result, consumers will have to pay more for cabbage, and businesses like supermarkets and restaurants may have to adjust their pricing strategies accordingly.
