The share of imported tomatoes in the Russian market is extremely large. Against the background of the total number of vegetables imported to the Russian market, some tomatoes account for about 38%.

Despite the fact that in Russia in recent years they have been betting on domestically produced greenhouse tomatoes and massively growing tomatoes in closed ground conditions, the volume of tomato imports is practically not declining.

However, so far, Russian farmers have not been able to achieve the same success in the greenhouse field. Like some leaders selling tomatoes in the world market. The climatic conditions of Russia do not always allow domestic farmers to compete in the sale of greenhouse vegetables. It is noteworthy that in the summer there are practically no peers of the Russian tomato in quality and price.

Market analysts, having monitored the current situation on the trading floors of Russia, came to the conclusion that today the cost of domestic greenhouse tomatoes is not reduced, unlike imported tomatoes. However, the gap between the cost of products begins to close. Reducing the price of Russian tomatoes can get greenhouses access to technical hot water from large enterprises and terminal sources.
