Turkey: Fresh Deciduous Fruit Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   TU2022-0050

Owing to favorable growing conditions and ongoing investments to improve on-farm yields, Turkey’s production and export of apples, pears, and table grapes is forecast at or near record levels in MY 2022/23. At least 80 percent of the projected production of these deciduous fruits will be consumed in Turkey, mainly as fresh fruit. Meantime, commercial growers continue to make on-farm investments to capitalize on growing opportunities in the domestic and export markets. Last marketing year, India was the leading destination for Turkish apples for the second straight year, while Russia held its top spot as the top market for Turkish pears and table grapes.
