Turkey: Raisin Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Raisin production forecast in Turkey in MY 2018/19 is 295,000 MT, down slightly from MY 2017/18 due to quality issues from heavy rains during the late spring and summer in the Aegean region. Turkey exports more than 90 percent of its domestic raisin production due to stable demand from Europe for sultana variety raisins, though exports are expected to decrease to 250,000 MT in MY 2018/19 in parallel with the drop in production. The Turkish Grain Board announced the procurement price for raisins in September 2017 and procured 4,682 MT of raisins from farmers.
