Chile: Fresh Deciduous Fruit Semi-annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Weather conditions such as low spring temperatures, high summer temperatures and rain affected grape production during MY 2015/16. As a result, fresh grape exports are expected to drop to 660,000 MT, which is a 12.5% reduction in volume over MY 2014/15. Fresh pear exports are projected to drop 9% totaling 130,000 MT, also due to negative climate conditions impacting production. On the other hand, a 5% increase in apple export volume is estimated in MY2015/16, totaling 660,000 MT, as U.S. demands increased for Chile’s Royal Gala variety.
