Abstract
Vegetable and cereal production dynamics impact socioeconomic conditions, agricultural performance, and the food industry structure. Specifically, cereals play a determinant role in the sustainability of societies, considering that they are used by several food industries and their importance for the human diet. Taking into account the importance of potatoes and wheat for the Portuguese contexts, a special focus was given to these two products. In this way, it analysed the potential consequences of the pandemic and recent crises on the potatoes and wheat producer prices, considering statistical information for the weeks of 2017-2022 from the SIMA (Sistema de Informação de Mercados Agrícolas). The impacts seem to be higher on the wheat prices than on the potatoes, and these implications came from namely in 2022.
