Tridge summary

Ukraine has been grappling with an overproduction issue in the apple market for three years, with a significant portion of the produce not meeting export standards. The development of markets in the East and Asia has recently hit a roadblock due to logistical issues, further limiting sales options. The situation is exacerbated by competition from Moldova and high logistics costs, leading to a crisis where many apples are unsold and some farmers are opting to plant other crops. Additionally, the process of producing apple concentrate in Ukraine has faced delays due to high costs and competition from other goods being transported.

Overproduction has been a problem on the apple market in Ukraine for three years now. There are a huge number of these products that do not meet certain export requirements. In addition, in recent years Ukraine has been quite successfully developing the markets of the East and Asia. Now they are practically not available, because we are talking about maritime logistics. Consequently, additional troubles arose with apples - the lack of a sales market. The President of the Ukrainian Fruit and Vegetable Association (UPOA) Taras Bashtannik spoke about this, writes SEEDS. “In addition, Ukraine has a competitor with cheap quality apples. This is Moldova. She was "banned" - now she has no right to deliver to Russia. Considering all this, the situation with apples is not happy now. It won't be fun anymore. Many even uproot gardens. Some apples were never harvested,” says the UPOA President. See also: A year of loss, a year of hope. Retrospective 2022 in the fruit and vegetable business of ...
