Ukraine: Tree Nuts Annual

Post projects Ukraine’s walnut production at around 133,000 metric tons (MT) for marketing year (MY) 2021/22 based on favorable weather conditions. Industrial walnut production is gradually gaining ground in Ukraine, driven both by state support and export demand for high-quality product. MY2021/22 exports are projected at around 108,000 MT, significantly exceeding the MY2020/21 estimate. The European Union remains a major export destination for Ukrainian exports. Ukrainians are developing a taste for imported nuts, including almonds, cashews, and pistachios, which creates opportunities for U.S. exports.
