Tridge summary

The EU Agricultural Outlook Report for 2024-2025 forecasts a rise in imports of tomatoes, peaches, nectarines, oranges, and apples, with tomatoes continuing to increase at an annual rate of 0.6% with Morocco as the primary supplier. Peach and nectarine imports are projected to grow by 5% annually, while orange imports will grow by 1.5% annually, mainly for off-season supply. However, fresh tomato, peach, and nectarine exports are expected to decline by 0.2%, 2.9%, and 0.2% annually, respectively. Orange exports are expected to remain stable. Unusually, the report predicts a slight increase in foreign sales and a decrease in imports for apples, with EU fresh apple exports anticipated to rise by 0.6% per year to 1.1 million tonnes in 2035, due to new apple varieties that better suit consumer preferences, while imports are expected to fall by 0.9% annually due to an increase in domestic supply and the availability of high-quality apple varieties.
