Canada: Fresh Deciduous Fruit Annual

FAS/Ottawa forecasts an eight percent decline in Canadian apple production for marketing year (MY) 2021/22, as adverse weather events affected many growing regions in Canada. Pear and table grape production in Ontario were less impacted by weather compared to British Columbia, with overall Canadian production forecast to grow for both commodities driven by better growing conditions in Ontario. Canadian imports of fresh apples and pears are forecast to decline on lower production in source countries, while imports of table grapes are forecast to grow for MY 2021/22. The United States will remain the main supplier of apples, pears, and table grapes to Canada.
