Introduction
Poland’s MY 2013/14 total apple product is estimated at 2.6 million metric tons, or a decline of nearly 10 percent from the previous year’s record crop. The decline is attributed, in part, to the drop-off in deliveries of “wild” or “backyard” harvested apples to the processing sector. Decreased deliveries will be reflected in lower apple juice production and lesser availability of stock for foreign buyers. On the other hand, dessert apples destined for the fresh market are reported to be of very good quality. Poland, a leading beneficiary of the EU’s School Fruit Scheme, is projected to expand its school year 2013/14 program by nearly 50 percent.
