The southern hemisphere is taking over the kiwifruit supply as its harvest begins, with South Africa experiencing a difficult campaign due to fungal disease and New Zealand's harvest being more positive. Italy has recorded the worst yield data in history for its green kiwifruit, and Portugal's kiwi season is expected to last until the end of June. In California, the kiwifruit season is ending, and imports will be key in the coming months. South Africa's yellow kiwi producers are experiencing a difficult season due to disease and market saturation, but there is still a gap in the market if produced to fill it. Germany's import volume is subject to strong fluctuations, with Italy and New Zealand being the most important supplier countries.
