South Africa: Fresh Deciduous Fruit Semi-annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

The deciduous fruit industry in South Africa showed some resilience by defying the drought conditions. In the 2016/17 MY, apple production increased by about one percent to 933,404 MT, pear production increased by less than one percent to 429,754 MT and the table grapes production increased by eighteen percent to 335,000 MT. These increases were mainly due to the increase in new area planted, young orchards coming into full production and high yielding varieties, partially offset by the drought conditions.
