Fresh Cherries Forecast Overview Production Turkey, the United States, and China are among the leading cherry producers monitored by FAS. In 2008, production is raised 5-percent to 2.1 million tons.

• Turkey continues to be the leading cherry producer. Marketing year 2008/09 production is raised 10-percent to 600,000 tons, pending favorable weather.

• China’s production is boosted nearly 16-percent to 174,000 tons, as cherry plantings reached full production. Because of increasing popularity among consumers, China’s farmers replaced traditional fruit crops with cherries.

• Spain’s production is raised 10-percent to 80,000 tons due to producers benefiting from the Orchard Rejuvenation Program to improve hectares (GAIN SP6011).

• Despite adverse weather last season, Chile’s 2008 crop is raised 6-percent to 56,700 tons as newly planted orchards are coming into production.

• United States tart cherry crop is down 30-percent from last season to 80,422 tons. Multiple spring freezes and wet weather during pollination hampered fruit set in Michigan, the largest producing state. Sweet cherry production is lowered 23-percent to 235,487 tons, as cool temperatures during bloom inhibited pollination. Additionally, a mid-April frost severely damaged a large portion of Washington’s sweet cherry crop. For detailed information on U.S. cherry production, see the latest USDA-National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS) Cherry Production report at: http://www.nass.usda.gov/Publications/index.asp.

Consumption A growing middle class and increasing incomes led to greater consumer demand for fruits. Consumption is increasing in China’s emerging city markets of Wenzhou, and Changsha. FAS/Beijing officials estimate that 20-percent of total cherry consumption is directly from the United States, while the

remaining 80-percent enters through “grey” channels. China’s cherry consumption is up 18-percent to 176,230 tons. Japan, which typically consumes around 25,500 tons of cherries annually, is nearly unchanged from the previous year to 26,780 tons. Taiwan’s consumption is boosted 10-percent to 11,500 tons.

Exports In 2007, top exporters in volume terms were Turkey (57,000 tons) the United States (50,600 tons), and Chile (33,000 tons). In order to increase exports, roughly one-third of Turkey’s producers are registered with the EUREPGAP (European Retailers’ Protocol for Good Agricultural Practices) program. The EUREPGAP, initiated by five European Union (EU) retailers, sets guidelines for the import of agricultural products and focuses on production processes. EUREPGAP registration is not required to export to the EU, nor is it an official governmental program. However, producers registered under EUREGAP receive training, advice on agricultural chemicals, and laboratory tests for their products. Major exporters are encouraging smaller producer participation; some exporters are funding the cost of certification and auditing. The increasing number of registered producers under the program favors agricultural exports to the European Union. Chile’s cherry exports increased 6-percent to 35,000 tons, as significant areas of newly planted orchards are coming into production. The United States is Chile’s main fresh cherry export market. Chile anticipates increased exports to the EU, Japan, and China. Last year, EU’s import duty fell to zero for cherries from Chile. Chile’s agreement with Japan lowers the current 8.5-percent duty in seven years to zero. The agreement with China calls for a duty reduction in 5 years of the current 10-percent duty. Total U.S. exports in 2007 valued at more than $251 million (50,610 tons). To date (January to April), U.S. fresh cherry exports jumped 276-percent to 617 tons. The leading markets for U.S. fresh cherry exports are typically Canada, Japan, and Taiwan. In 2007, exports to Canada totaled $102 million (23,480 tons), while exports to Japan were $55 million (9,140 tons), and $27 million (4,080 tons) to Korea. Imports In 2007, fresh cherry imports totaled 224,700 tons. The top importers were Russia (51,280 tons), Germany (57,600 tons), and Austria (26,590 tons). Permitted since 2005, fresh cherries from China to Taiwan have not affected the market due to logistical and quality control concerns. To date, Taiwan has no recorded imports of fresh cherries from China. In 2007, direct shipments of U.S. Northwest cherries to China increased in volume by 116-percent from the previous year to 670 tons, of which 263 tons (up 130-percent) went to Shanghai, and 26 tons to Beijing, which was for the first year for direct shipments. China expects to increase their imports of California cherries, due increased to market access. General Phytosanitary Requirements Due to codling moth concerns, U.S. fresh cherries are subject to methyl bromide fumigation before entering Japan. Japan allows the United States to ship the following fresh cherry varieties with methyl bromide fumigation: Early Garnet, Sweetheart, Chelen, Tulare, Van, Bing, Broox, Lapin, Lambert, Ranier, and Royal Ranier.




July 2008

Taiwan subjects stone fruit imports to inspection based on three basic laws: 1) the Food Safety Management Act, 2) Food Safety Management Regulations, and 3) Maximum Residue Level Standards. Currently, Taiwan bans or subjects to pest-free certification, stone fruit imports from countries with the following pests: Mediterranean fruit fly, Peach fruit fly, Codling moth, Apple maggot, Mexican fruit fly, Plum curculio, Queensland fruit fly, South American fruit fly, and Western Flower Thrips. Taiwan’s Department of Health (DOH) is working to expand its list of maximum residue levels (MRLs) for chemical compounds commonly used. The DOH review process is expected to run several years. Fresh Peaches and Nectarines Production The top producers of peaches and nectarines are typically China, Italy, and the United States. Fresh peach and nectarine production for FAS monitored countries is raised 5-percent to 14.3 million tons.

• China, the leading producer of peaches and nectarines, is up 8-percent, to 8.6 million tons, assuming normal weather conditions. Peach acreage continues to decline, as the demand stagnates and prices lower. The planted area is decreased 1-percent to 650,000 hectares. Since the second half of 2007, production costs continued to rise and compound fertilizer prices increased by 30 to 70-percent from the previous year.

• Spain’s production is up 4-percent to 1.2 million tons due to producers benefiting from the Orchard Rejuvenation Program aimed at improving the current hectare production.

• Turkey’s production is up slightly from the 2007 frost-affected crop to 545,000 tons. • Japan’s area harvested and production estimates are 10,100 hectares and 152,500 tons,

lowered 100 hectares and 1-percent from the previous season. • Australia’s peach and nectarine production is unchanged at 110,000 tons, following a

long-running drought. • Selected U.S. peach production for California, Georgia, and South Carolina is up 16-

percent to 481,000 tons. The California Freestone crop experienced an adequate number of chilling hours. Weather during the bloom period was accommodating, although cooler spring temperatures slightly slowed maturity. The crop quality reported as excellent, with good sizes. South Carolina’s crop recovered from last year’s frost-damaged crop. Georgia’s peach crops escaped freeze damage.

Marketing Years

Source: FAS Agricultural Attaché reports and the U.S. National Agricultural Statistics ServiceMarketing year is January-December.

Turkey consumes approximately 80-percent of its peach production for fresh consumption and the remainder processed for juice, jam, and dried products. Domestic consumption is lowered 1-percent to 405,000 tons, due to high nectarine prices. Taiwan’s peach and nectarine consumption is raised 6-perent to 70,300 tons. Peach and nectarine sales are mainly concentrated in hyper and supermarkets, as they provide better handling techniques. China’s consumption is raised 7-percent to 8.6 million tons as domestic production increases.

Exports Global fresh peach and nectarine exports totaled more 1.4 million tons in 2006. The top world suppliers were Spain (545,000 tons), and Italy (368,000 tons), and Chile (98,000 tons). Turkey’s growers generally sell their products to established exporting firms that have packing and transportation facilities. Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Romania are Turkey’s top three export markets. Chile, Taiwan’s second largest supplier after the United States, remains competitive due to its lower production costs and increasing supply. Total U.S. exports in 2007 valued at $132 million (101,304 tons). The direct competitors for U.S. peaches to Taiwan are mainly locally produced peaches. In 2007, the leading export markets for U.S. peaches and nectarines were Canada, Taiwan, and Mexico, and exports totaled $70 million (51,048 tons), $33 million (28,322 tons), and $15 million (14,990 tons), respectively. To date (January through April 2008), U.S. fresh peach and nectarine exports jumped 36-percent to 976 tons. Imports In 2006, the top global importers were Germany (296,510 tons), Russia (132,320 tons), and France (139,910 tons). To date (January through April 2008), U.S. peach and nectarine imports from Chile increased 5-percent to 56,208 tons. General Phytosanitary Requirements Japan does not allow U.S. fresh peach imports due to phytosanitary concerns. All U.S. nectarines are subject to methyl bromide fumigation before entering Japan due to codling moth. The following U.S. varieties with methyl bromide fumigation are allowed: Summer Grand, Spring Red, Firebrite, Fantasia, May Grand, Mayglo, May Diamond, Mayfire, Red Diamond, and Royal Giant. China does not offer market access to U.S. fresh peach or nectarine imports.




July 2008

Fresh Plums and Prunes Production The leading producers of fresh plums and prunes are China and the United States. Production for the selected producers is raised 5-percent from the previous year to 4.1 million tons.

• China’s production is boosted 10-percent to over 2.2 million tons, as earlier plantings are bearing fruit and coming to full production.

• Taiwan’s plum production is lowered 10-percent to 23,344 tons, due to typhoon and cold weather damage.

• The United States is raised 8-percent to 381,120 tons. Based on industry indicators, California’s production will reach 153,300 tons due to optimal winter and spring growing conditions. The production estimate for plums and prunes for Idaho, Michigan, Oregon, and Washington, will be available in the January edition of the USDA-NASS Non-citrus Fruits and Nuts report.

Consumption Plum consumption for FAS monitored countries is raised 5-percent to 4.5 million tons. China, the largest consumer, is raised 5-percent to 1.2 million tons. U.S. consumption is up 8-percent to 375,720 tons. Turkey’s plum and prune consumption is lowered 6-percent to 218,000 tons, which traditionally only exports 2-percent of its production. Exports Global exports of fresh plums and prunes reached 408,200 tons in 2006, down 3-percent from 2005. The top exporters in volume terms were Chile (105,055 tons) and Spain (81,490 tons). Valued at $53 million (41,960 tons) in 2007, U.S. plum and prune exports to Canada, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Mexico totaled $27 million, $8 million, $5 million, and $4 million, respectively. To date (January through April 2008), U.S. fresh plum exports jumped 20-percent to 800 tons. Imports Global imports of fresh plums and prunes totaled more than $351 million (330,720 tons) in 2006. The leading importers were the United Kingdom (66,230 tons) and Russia (59,500 tons). Taiwan’s tropical fruit product substitution is proved a threat to stone fruit summertime store shelves dominance. The growth of peach and nectarine imports caused a continuous drop in plum imports in recent years. Fresh Apricots Production Fresh apricot production for the selected producers jumped 8-percent to 3.1 million tons.

• China’s production is raised 14-percent to 1.7 million tons, due to increase in the planted area. Acreage is up 10-percent to 430,000 hectares. The quick expansion is attributed to government encouragement, including free or subsidized seedlings in poor areas of north China, where water is lacking and apricots survive.




July 2008

• Selected U.S. production, which includes California, is boosted 7-percent to 78,930 tons. Optimal weather created record yields speculation. Cool weather in May promoted good sized and quality crops.

Consumption Apricot consumption is raised 2-percent to 1.6 million tons, and total production is up 8-percent, as diets diversify and incomes rise in emerging markets. Exports In 2007, global fresh apricot exports totaled 236,280 tons. The top suppliers were France (67,750 tons) and Spain (50,657 tons). In 2007, U.S. fresh apricot exports totaled $12 million (7,056 tons). Canada ($8 million, 4,575 tons) and Mexico ($3 million, 2,348 tons) were the predominant destinations. Combined, the two countries typically purchase around 95-percent of U.S. fresh apricot exports. To date (January to April), U.S. fresh apricot exports increased 18-percent to 104 tons. Imports Global fresh apricot imports totaled more than $103 million in 2006. The top importers were Russia (58,410 tons) and Italy (29,230 tons). To date (January through April), U.S. fresh apricot imports dropped slightly to 863 tons, as imports from New Zealand and the Netherlands plunged. State of Emergency for Central Valley Region On June12, 2008, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger proclaimed a state of emergency in the Central Valley counties due to severe water shortages. The proclamation included the following counties: Sacramento, San Joaquin, Stanislaus, Merced, Madera, Fresno, Kings, Tulare and Kern. The Central Valley is major stone fruit producing region. On June 4, 2008, following two consecutive years of below-average rainfall, low snowmelt runoff, and the largest court-ordered water transfer restrictions in state history, Governor Schwarzenegger proclaimed a statewide drought and issued an Executive Order to deal with the crisis. The drought declaration is the first for California since 1991.
