Fruit and veg prices have 急に上がるd by more than half in just one year... and the 苦痛 isn't over

The price 増加するs mean that many people are not buying the fresh produce they need for a healthy diet

The poorest 10 per cent of 世帯s are buying 25 per cent いっそう少なく fruit than in 2007, while their? vegetable 消費 has fallen by 15 per cent, によれば a? 熟考する／考慮する published by the Department for 環境, Food and 田舎の 事件／事情／状勢s.Tim Lang, professor of food 政策 at London’s City University, said the 殺到する in the price of fresh produce is ‘a 災害 for public health’.

The British 小売 国際借款団／連合, which speaks for the major supermarkets, 主張するs its members are 保護するing 顧客s against the worst 影響 of rising prices.

Its food director, Andrew Opie, said: ‘Retailers are doing a lot to keep fruit and veg affordable, from running 記録，記録的な／記録する numbers of 昇進／宣伝s to putting more produce into their basic 範囲s.’

But bosses at Tesco and Sainsbury’s have 警告するd of 不足s of home-produced fruit and vegetables and higher prices in the run-up to Christmas.

The problems for British 農業者s relate to the 豪雨 during the summer months and more recently, which have left many fields waterlogged.

The 国家の potato 収穫 could be the lowest in 35 years, while the apple 刈る is 負かす／撃墜する by around 25 per cent.

農業者s are also 最高潮の場面ing the fact that Britain’s wheat 収穫 has fallen by around 15 per cent this year on the five-year 普通の／平均（する）, with 生産性 負かす／撃墜する to 1980s levels.

He 追加するd: ‘The challenge for the pig and poultry market is to make sure retailers 支払う／賃金 a fair price, because in pigs 50 per cent of the cost is 穀物, poultry it’s 60 per cent.

‘These 農業者s at the moment, because the prices 港／避難所’t 答える／応じるd yet, they’re 説 I’m not going to fill my sheds with poultry or pigs any more.’

The extent of the washout is starkly illustrated by the 決定／判定勝ち（する） of one of England’s 主要な ワイン 生産者s to abandon its 収穫.

The wettest summer in England and むちの跡s for 100 years means? that for the first time since it 工場／植物d its first vines in 1988, Nyetimber has decided its grapes are not 価値（がある） collecting.
