Latest Market Information September 7, 2018
August marks the beginning of the garlic season, which ends in November. Prices for fresh garlic have been fluctuating, and eventually falling to very low levels. This has resulted in a drastic price drop of the essential oil too. Considering that the planting area has not decreased this year, and prices of new production raw materials look low, garlic essential oil is expected to remain steady at a reasonably lower rate.
