The World Apple and Pear Association (WAPA) predicted a slight increase in the EU27 and UK's apple and pear harvest for the 2022/2023 season, with Poland experiencing a significant surge of over 27% in production. However, Spain saw a decrease of -16% due to April's frost. There's a decline in the Golden Delicious variety, but Gala, Cripps Pink, and club varieties are on the rise. The harvest figures are subject to revision due to heat waves accelerating ripening. Challenges such as increased costs, weather conditions, logistical issues, inflation, and worker shortage could threaten business continuity and affect the quality and availability of the produce. The situation was updated in October, showing a reduction in the forecasted production and addressing the challenges, including the high cost of electricity, potential harvest halt due to storage costs, and concerns about the size and color of the harvest leading to more production for industry and less for table use.
