This year, a kilogram of onion is being sold for 100 lek more.

"These are onions from Greece. Why don't you have country onions? He shot that the onion of the country is gone and there is no more. Do people complain about the price? They complain because it is too high. How many years was 1 kg of onion? Last year at this time, 1 kg of onion cost 60 Lek, while this year 160 Lek", says the merchant.

The lack of local onions has made our market to be supplied with Chinese onions.

"We buy onions from Egypt, China and other Asian countries", declared Agim Rrapaj.

The war in Ukraine brought to the attention of farmers once again the importance of wheat, for this reason the farmers of Korca and Divjaka planted cereals instead of onions.

"There is a disorder in the market due to the fact that when onions last year fell to a price below the average level, then the farmers realized that this was not the right crop to continue. But those who will look at this situation this year that we have now will plant onions again next year. This is a problem that has accompanied us and will continue to accompany us", said Agim Rrapaj, Agriculture Expert.

The lack of onion in the country made onion farmers happy, as this time they are getting the price they have been looking for for years.

"This is a Korçë onion, while this is a new Divjak onion that started a couple of days ago. Why is it 2 thousand lek? Because this is an old onion and it is dry and it is the highest price, 160 lek is bought in bulk. This is a new onion that has continued, it is from Divjaka, it came out at a cheaper price. Has this been plucked prematurely for farmers to capture the price? Yes, it has something to do with it because the price is high and they rip it off quickly to make as much money as possible. This onion is bought for 120 lek in the wholesale market", said the merchant.

While for the consumer, this price is too high. Many farmers to touch the high price of onion, are plucking it before the season. Such a thing has brought anger to the citizens.

"We want one kg per week, we don't need onions only in baklava, we need onions everywhere. It is the best, we will take it because this is not a thing, it is a new onion, it is an onion that has been in the ground and has sprouted and is with carabush, this is used today", declared the citizen.

The lack of this product also comes as a result of the increase in onion exports to the countries of the region. Such a situation pleased the farmers and burdened the local consumer./Tch
