Germany: Endive as an alternative to other types of lettuce



With lettuce varieties being scarce this week, there were several discount actions promoting endive as an alternative. The German Agrarmarkt Informations-Gesellschaft (AMI) states that 8 German retailers had the vegetable on sale for prices hovering between 0.79 and 0.99 cents.

The actions created a bigger demand, in turn causing Italian exporters to frequently run out of supplies. Winter conditions affected endive crops and reduced harvest, and also influenced quality of available produce.
