South Korea: 2020 Apple Update

In Marketing Year (MY) 2020/21, Korea’s fresh apple production is projected to decrease by 15 percent to 455,000 MT due to reduced planted area and weather-related damage. Reduced production will drive prices higher (despite a temporary drop in the first half of 2020) and Korea’s fresh apple exports are projected to decrease by 400 MT to around 2,000 MT. Korea does not allow fresh apple imports.
