Production is lower but EU/EEA single market countries aren't seeing these shortages. Many Brits seem quick to blame the EU for this, saying it's an artificial shortage but they'd do well to remember that bringing in fruit and veg now carries a duty tariff. Spanish tomatoes are available all over the EU but not in Tesco because it costs somebody 8.8%-14.4% extra to bring them into the UK. Thanks Brexit. It is fair to say domestic production of non-seasonal items is in the toilet because they rely on heated greenhouses and it'd be fair to blame Russia for ridiculous fuel prices. The market won't afford lettuce at three times normal price. But we wouldn't normally be eating domestic-grown salads over winter anyway.
