 At Kireka market, a township in central Uganda, several fruit and vegetable products have seen a drop in their prices since the beginning of May. These include eggplants, mangoes, pineapples and pawpaws.
 
Prices for pineapples range between sh2,000 and sh3,000 and sh1,500 to sh2,000 for a pawpaw (papaya).
 
Barbra Nantume, a trader at Ggaba market, says the reduction in prices is due to continued supply onto the market.
 
However, the supplies of watermelon dwindled, leading to an increase in price from about sh4,000 up to sh 5,000 - sh7,000.
 
Meanwhile, prices of Irish potatoes, cassava and rice have increased in the city centre market. Three roots of cassava cost sh3,000.
