The European Union (EU), as the world's second-largest apple producer after China, is expected to see a decrease in its apple harvest this year due to cold spring weather, with a projected decrease of half a million tons compared to last year, totaling 12.2 million tons. Despite this, the EU is still expected to maintain its position as the leading global apple exporter, with exports estimated to drop below one million tons due to various factors including Egypt's lack of foreign exchange. The EU's pear production is also expected to decline, with a predicted 250,000-ton drop in production primarily due to Italy's anticipated weakest harvest in 18 years. Additionally, the EU's table grape consumption is significantly higher than production, making it heavily reliant on imports, particularly from South Africa.

Exports are expected to fall below one million tons (970,000 tons), in which Egypt's lack of foreign exchange also plays a role. Even with this weaker performance, the EU can retain its title as the top exporter on the global apple market. The amount of imported apples, on the other hand, may increase by more than 15 percent to 265,000 tons thanks to shipments from North Macedonia, Moldova and Serbia. In terms of pear production and export, China is by far the largest player in the world market. The EU ranks second in production and third in exports, with an order of magnitude behind. This year's EU harvest may drop by a quarter of a million tons to 1.8 million, mostly due to the drop in Italy. The ...
