Forrásszöveg" GE" Utószerkesztett változat Példaként az almahiányt említette. Magyarországon átlagosan 600 ezer tonna alma terem, ezzel szemben idén mindent összevetve is csupán 350 ezer tonna termett. Csak az iparnak 500 ezer tonnára lenne szüksége, így könnyen belátható, hogy súlyos hiány van a gyümölcsből, ezért emelkedett ilyen látványosan az alma ára. Még a jégháló sem védte volna meg a termést. A szakember megjegyezte, hogy a korszerű ültetvényeken jéghálóval mínusz 1-2 fokot ki lehetne védeni, azonban egy több hónapig tartó, folyamatos, minden fajt érintő fagyhullámot az sem állított volna meg. Mártonffy Béla reméli, hogy az idei tavaszihoz hasonló időjárási viszontagságok a következő években nem fog megismétlődni. A zöldségeknél már jobb a helyzet. A zöldségekre kitérve a szakember elmondta, itt is megfigyelhető százalékos drágulás. Ez főleg az április és június közötti időszakban bekövetkező nagy hőingásoknak tudható be. A hőérzékeny növények — a paradicsom, a paprika, vagy a borsó és csemegekukorica — emiatt vontatottan keltek, és minden csúszott egy-két hetet. He cited the apple shortage as an example. In Hungary, an average of 600,000 tonnes of apples are produced, whereas this year, on average, only 350,000 tonnes were produced. The industry alone would need 500,000 tonnes, so it is easy to see that there is a serious shortage of the fruit, which is why the price of apples has risen so spectacularly. Even ice nets would not have protected the crop. The expert noted that modern plantations could have been protected from minus 1-2 degrees by ice nets, but that they would not have stopped a continuous frost wave affecting all varieties for several months. Béla Martonffy hopes that weather conditions similar to this spring will not be repeated in the coming years. The situation is better for vegetables. Turning to vegetables, the expert said that a percentage rise in prices was also noticeable here. This was mainly due to the high temperatures between April and June, which meant that heat-sensitive crops such as tomatoes, peppers, peas and sweetcorn were slow to emerge and all delayed for a week or two. He cited apple shortages as an example. In Hungary, on average 600,000 tons of apples are grown annualy, but this year, all in all, only 350,000 tons were grown. Processors/The food industy alone (would) need 500 thousand tons, so it is easy to see that there is a severe shortage of apples, and this explains the spectacular rise in prices. Even hail nets would not have protected the crop. The president added that in modern plantations hail nets can provide protection up to minus 1-2 degrees. However, even nets could not have protected the crop against a continuous wave of frost lasting several months and affecting all fruit crops. He expressed his hope that weather conditions similar to those experienced this spring will not recur/return in coming years. The vegetable(s) situation is better. Turning to vegetables, Mr. Mártonffy said that in this sector too there has been a marked increase in prices. This is mainly due to large temperature fluctuations between April and June. Heat-sensitive crops, such as tomatoes, peppers, peas and sweet corn emerged late, and all crops were delayed by a week or two. + 21°
