This report covers vegetable prices only. It summarises wholesale quotes published by Husfarm for week 2026-W45, which ran from 2 November 2026 to 8 November 2026. The figures below show which vegetables moved most in median terms, which single quotes recorded the largest changes, and how medians looked in the countries with the most comparisons.
Coverage this week
The vegetable group for the week is built from the following published data:
- 4219 quotes published
- 151 markets
- 16 countries
Each change is measured against the same market's previous publication, so the comparison dates differ between quotes. Some single moves compare a quote with the day before, while others compare it with 30 October 2026.
Products with the largest median rises
Five vegetables showed median increases across the quotes compared. Luffa led, followed by Soyabean Green (Edamame), with smaller gains for Bunching Onion, Water Spinach and Choy Sum.
- Luffa: median change +8.3% across 8 quotes compared, with 6 quotes up and 2 down.
- Soyabean Green (Edamame): +7.0% across 6 quotes compared, with 5 up and 1 down.
- Bunching Onion: +3.3% across 8 quotes compared, with 5 up and 3 down.
- Water Spinach: +2.2% across 10 quotes compared, with 6 up and 4 down.
- Choy Sum: +1.7% across 8 quotes compared, with 4 up and 4 down.
Choy Sum had an equal number of quotes up and down, so its positive median reflects the size of the changes and not a majority of increases. The sample sizes for these products are small, ranging from 6 to 10 quotes, and readers should treat the medians with that in mind.
Products with the largest median falls
Three vegetables recorded median decreases. Marrow stood out with the largest fall of the week.
- Marrow: median change −21.3% across 10 quotes compared, with 3 quotes up and 6 down.
- Bottle Gourd: −4.3% across 10 quotes compared, with 4 up and 6 down.
- Yam: −2.9% across 22 quotes compared, with 3 up and 17 down.
Yam had the largest number of quotes compared among the products listed as rising or falling, and most of them were lower. For Marrow, the median fall was well beyond that of any other product in the list.

How the figures are calculated
Product and country figures are medians of the changes in individual quotes against the same market's previous publication, with each change calculated in its own currency. The list of single moves leaves out the most extreme changes and any series that has too short a history over the past year, so it does not show every large movement in the data.
