The garlic market is virtually empty. Stocks are very limited and the little that comes in is quickly sold out. In South Africa this is currently resulting in very high prices on the domestic market. Other countries are taking advantage of the situation, including Egypt, which is seeing its exports increase very strongly. We are now waiting for the new harvest from China and Spain. The garlic is looking good in the fields, but the question is whether there will be enough workers to harvest it.
