Turkey: Tree Nuts Annual
Link to report:
It is an ‘on-year’ for pistachios for Turkey; consequently a high amount of production is anticipated for Marketing Year (MY) 2020/21. Turkey will carry over pistachio stocks this year for the next ‘off-year’. Turkey relies on imports for almonds and walnuts to meet domestic demand. U.S. walnuts and almonds are still subject to retaliatory tariffs, resulting in a 10 percent higher customs tax than other tree nut exporting countries. Turkey is the top producer of hazelnuts in the world and the biggest exporter. The MY 2020/21 yield for hazelnuts is lower than the last marketing year.
