Italy is a world leading processed tomato producer, representing approximately 13.6 percent of the global production and 49 percent of Europe’s production, with a sector turnover of more than €3.1 billion. According to the latest data released by the National Association of the Canned Vegetables Industry (Anicav), Italy’s processed tomato production totaled 4.6 million metric tons (MMT) in 2018, 11.5 percent down from the previous year due to planted area reductions (-5.9 percent), spring rains, and sudden alternations of temperature during summer. Italy is both a leading exporter and importer of tomato products.
