Bulgaria: Stone Fruit Annual
Link to report:
Post forecasts that Bulgaria’s stone fruit crop in marketing year (MY)2019 will decline marginally. Cherry production is expected to decrease due to lower area harvested and lower average yields, resulting from unfavorable weather. Peach supplies are forecast to increase due to higher yields following favorable weather in major production regions, as well as an increase in the area harvested. Fresh peach and cherry consumption are forecast to increase due to favorable consumer demand, although demand from cherry processors projected to decline. Cherry imports are likely to grow in conjunction with the decline in the local supplies.
