KINGSTON, Jamaica — Market prices held mostly steady this week at the Coronation Market with some produce recording slight increases despite the recent rainfall that have eased drought conditions for farmers.
During the Observer team’s visit to the downtown Kingston landmark, tomatoes held firm at $300 per pound, while carrots increased by $50, moving from $350 to $400 per pound. Onions and Irish potatoes also recorded $50 increases, with both now selling for $250 per pound, up from $200 last week.
