CHRUDIM. There is still no end to the price increases on the Czech blue poppy seed market - low stocks and a smaller crop will cause prices to rise until the end of the month. So far, this has not dampened demand.

Moderate price increases

In the past two weeks there have been further price increases, but they are more moderate than before.
