Chile's agricultural attaché in the US, Andrés Rodríguez, anticipates a successful 2024-25 season for Chilean fruit exports to the US, which is the primary market for Chilean fruit products. This optimism is due to favorable weather conditions in Chile and significant changes in table grape exports with the publication of the Systems Approach. Chile's fruit industry is expected to benefit from the introduction of new fruit varieties and the promotion of cherries in the US. The key to success will be maintaining high quality and condition in the off-season. The Systems Approach is expected to boost Chilean exports by making more production eligible and by introducing new treatment options. Additionally, the growth of new table grape varieties and the ongoing increase in cherry exports are positive indicators for the industry.
