Australia: Fresh Deciduous Fruit
Australia’s table grapes production is forecast to reach 200,000 metric tons in 2018/19, up almost 18 percent from the previous year. Producers are increasingly focusing on exports in response to strong international demand, especially from China. The harvested area is forecast to expand to 12,000 hectares in 2018/19, up 9 percent compared to the previous year. Imports of table grapes, mainly from the United States, are expected to remain unchanged.
