China: Raisin Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   CH2021-0103

China’s raisin production is forecast at 180,000 MT in MY2021/22, a rebound of 20 percent from a failed crop in the previous year due to Covid-19 outbreaks in Xinjiang that prevented harvest and processing. Raisin imports are expected to improve to 23,000 MT in MY2021/22 as domestic consumption recovers, especially in the food processing sector. China’s raisin export market remains weak amid uncertainties over the pandemic situation and the potential economic slowdown taking place across many of the primary export markets.
