Post estimates China’s production of apples, pears, and table grapes to increase to 45 MMT, 19.6 MMT, and 13.5 MMT, respectively, in MY 2023/24. Apple imports will likely decline by 20 percent due to reduced supplies and higher prices in major exporting countries. Table grape imports will further decrease by 30 percent, substituted by improved production volumes and desirable domestic varieties. Despite China’s limited import volume, pear imports will continue to increase by 20 percent on rising demand.
