Taiwan: Stone Fruit Annual 2013
Taiwan remains an important market for U.S. stone fruit. It is the third largest importer of U.S. peaches/nectarines and the fourth largest export market for U.S. cherries. Local peach/nectarine production is estimated to expand 11 percent reaching 32,461 metric tons (MT) in 2013. Taiwan does not produce cherries, so 100% of local demand must be met by imports.
