Carrots are 50 pence a kg right now. So it’s not very competitive. However, the current price probably relies on subsidies.

Less than double the price and somehow that’s not competitive? Guess organic isn’t viable then.

And the 3d printing tech is not mature so would come down a lot as the process scales up.
