South Africa: Raisin Annual
Post forecasts that the 2015/16 MY raisin production will decrease by thirteen percent to 55,000 MT, following the record level raisin production of 63,000 MT in the 2014/15 MY. The record production in the 2014/15 MY was mainly driven by excellent weather conditions, expansion of area planted and the diversion of wine grapes to raisins production as a result of lower prices for wine grapes.
