Australia: Fresh Deciduous Fruit Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   AS2023-0019

Australia’s table grape production is expected to increase to a record 220,000 MT in marketing year (MY) 2023/24 from an estimated 210,000 metric tons (MT) in MY 2022/23. This growth is mainly a result of excellent seasonal conditions so far and the anticipation of continued favorable seasonal conditions through to the end of harvest. These conditions are also expected to produce high-quality table grapes in the forecast year and increase the supply of products suitable for the export market. The boost in production and quality is forecast to result in the third-highest export result on record of 140,000 MT for MY 2023/24. The forecast record production is expected to support a five percent boost in consumption for MY 2023/24.
