Mash: watermelons and melons in Russia will become noticeably more expensive
Watermelons and melons from Astrakhan, Volgograd and Rostov will rise in price by at least 15 in the summer of 2024, reports the Mash Telegram channel.
The harvest was reduced by almost a third due to the heat and lack of rain for four weeks.
The cost of imported melons will be even higher, experts suggest.
