Chile-Fresh Deciduous Fruit Semi-annual 2013
Report Highlights:
Chile’s apple, table grape and pear production and exports are expected to fall when compared to the previous year as a result of adverse weather conditions in most growing areas.
Executive Summary:
New estimates show that production of apples, table grapes and pears will fall in 2013, as weather has not been favorable in general terms for fruit production. Exports will also fall accordingly except for Apple Juice Concentrate (AJC) because of a strong demand which is reflected by a significant increase of international prices.
