The regional director of trade in Sfax, Mohamed Jaber Hariz revealed that the quantities of potatoes which will be produced and injected into the markets are assessed at around 20,000 tonnes, in addition to the 5,000 tonnes of adjustment stock. He added that February is viewed as a production period for several vegetables that will be available in the markets, considering the volume of demand during the month of Ramadan.
