The peach and nectarine production forecast for MY 2022/23 is 940,000 around six percent more than MY 2021/22, again due to no frost damage and enough rainfall for this year's crop. Stone fruit exports are forecast to increase in parallel with the higher production in MY 2022/23. Turkey especially aims to increase its exports of fresh sweet cherries to South Korea through technical negotiations. This report covers cherries, peaches, and nectarines.
