What's behind the fruit and veg shortages?
Sales of some fruit and vegetables have been limited by three of the country's largest supermarkets, Asda, Aldi and Morrisons.
Asda has capped sales of lettuce, salad bags, broccoli, cauliflowers and raspberry punnets to three per customer, along with tomatoes, peppers and cucumbers.Tomatoes and peppers seem to be the worst affected at both retailers but its unclear whether this is because they are popular. But Southern Spain has been suffering unusually cold weather and in Morocco crop yields have been affected by floods, while storms have led to ferries being delayed or cancelled.It led to Morocco barring exports of tomatoes, onions and potatoes to West African countries earlier this month as it tried to protect exports to Europe.
