Russian growers start harvesting early apples

Growers from Krasnodar Krai, Russia, have started harvesting early apples in the beginning of July.

For the present, farms offer mainly Early Geneva and Luch varieties at RUB 40-55/kg (USD 0.72-0.99/kg), depending on quality and shipment volume.

It should be noted that 2015 campaign started a week later than last year due to long spring. Prices of first volumes in the RUB equivalent are 30% higher year-on-year. At the same time, prices in the USD equivalent have fallen by 20% compared with the same period of the previous season.

We would remind you that more detailed information about the Eastern European apple market developments will be presented at the 5th International Conference «Apple Business of Ukraine-2015», which is going to take place on August 13-14, Kleopatra Hotel, Kamyanets-Podilskyi, Ukraine.
