Vegetable price increase concerns addressed

For example, the price per kilogram of premium tomatoes has reached 1 dinar in retail shops, compared to around 30 piastres in the wholesale market, with approximately 430 tons of production—close to the daily demand. The ministry monitors prices and affirms that fluctuations are driven by the laws of supply and demand, expecting local production to meet market needs after mid-July.
