Summer heat boosts Al-Ahsa market prices
The markets of Al-Ahsa witnessed a noticeable increase in watermelon prices during the summer season, with the price per kilogram ranging between 3.5 and 4 riyals due to increased demand and limited supply, with the price of a single piece exceeding 50 riyals in some areas. This rise is attributed to the seasonal nature of the fruit and traders' demand, adversely affecting consumers and small merchants. Quantities are imported from production regions such as Harad, Wadi Al-Dawasir, and Sajr to meet the summer demand.
