The 2022 tangerine harvest in Georgia is expected to be around 40-45 thousand tons, a decrease from the previous year, due to unfavorable weather conditions including spring rain and a summer drought. As a result, tangerine prices have increased, with the farm price rising by about 0.04 lari (0.015 USD) compared to last year. Despite the lower harvest and increased prices, demand for Georgian tangerines in traditional export markets remains stable, with over 1000 tons exported since October 25. However, exporters have noted a decrease in demand from the Russian market and issues with crop quality and caliber.
