Survey shows Prices of tomato, onions on a high side

The prices of tomato and onions keep rising in the Tamale Metropolis due to inadequate supply of the two commodities in the two main markets, Aboabo and Tamale Central markets.
A bowl or what is termed as “Paint container” of tomato (Navrongo variety), which was being sold last week at Ghc25 is this week selling between Ghc30 and Ghc35 depending on the quality while an “olonka” of onion has shot up from Ghc32 to Ghc35.
A GNA survey on Friday in the two markets showed that the unstable price of tomato has been as a result of a short supply of the commodity, especially the Navrongo variety.
