The price of broccoli had almost doubled by Thursday compared to last week with only around 3 tonnes sold at City Deep on Thursday. This indicates a high demand for this crop early in the winter season.
A cursory glance at lettuce suggests that its price sits around R10. However, closer inspection reveals several 3 and 5kg lettuce boxes selling for around R30 per kg.
