Local Farmers Overcome Frost to Deliver Sweet Strawberries to Belarusian Markets

Local Belarusian markets are currently offering fresh strawberries, despite challenges posed by recent frosts. One strawberry farmer, interviewed at a market in Grodno, explained that the price is 10 rubles for half a kilogram due to reduced yields. "The frosts affected the harvest significantly," he said, noting that many trees and plants suffered damage. He grows the Albion and Claire varieties in a heated greenhouse. This resilience highlights the efforts of local farmers to maintain supply despite the adverse weather conditions.
