A team of Chilean and French scientists are looking for sponsors to grow tomatoes on the ISS to better understand how they can adapt to extreme conditions

In most European Union countries, tomato prices fell in November compared to October. The exception is France, where the European Commission's Tomato Dashboard shows positive figures for grape tomatoes and cherry tomatoes.

The French tomato harvest in 2024 is estimated at 475.5 thousand tonnes, up 5% on the previous year but below the five-year average, while the national area under cultivation remained unchanged. After a slower start to the season, production levels rose in the summer, but were close to the five-year average in the autumn, while prices were 4% higher than in 2023, although prices for cherry and cocktail tomatoes were depressed by import competition. Exports increased by 4% between January and September, but imports increased by 11%, leading to a 22% increase in the foreign trade deficit compared to the previous year.
