Early Asparagus Harvest in Brandenburg

The anticipated asparagus harvest in Brandenburg's Beelitz region is set to commence at the end of March, driven by mild temperatures. The official season will begin on April 10, with stable prices expected around 10 to 12 euros per kilogram, except during Easter.

Green asparagus is becoming increasingly popular among consumers. However, the sector faces challenges, as smaller farms struggle with rising costs, leading to a significant decline in cultivation areas.

Jürgen Jakobs, chairman of the Beelitz Asparagus Association, advocates for a reduction in value-added tax for the catering industry to support these growers. Farmers are employing protective measures, such as covering fields with foil, to ensure a successful harvest.
