In October 2024, Moldova exported around 5,000 tons of apples, generating approximately $3.3 million in revenue, according to the Moldova Fruct Association. The majority of these exports were sent to Russia and Romania, with Saudi Arabia also being a significant recipient. The average price per kilogram of Moldovan apples in October was $0.67. The low export figures for September-October of both this year and the previous year are attributed to the high domestic demand and prices for industrial apples in Moldova.
