Idared leads in production growth rates in EU

Idared is a leader in production growth rates among most popular apple varieties in the EU, according to the results of the market study «Apple Business of Ukraine, Russia & Kazakhstan 2015» conducted by Fruit-Inform.

Idared is now the third most popular apple variety in the EU. Idared has also managed to leave Red Delicious variety behind thanks to a significant increase in production: Idared apple production has almost doubled in the EU since 2010, while production of Red Delicious apples has gone down by 3%.

Gala is the second variety with highest production growth rates among top five ones: up by 35% over the past 5 years. It should also be noted that Golden Delicious shows rather slow production growth rates despite being the most growing apple variety in the EU: up just by 5% since 2010.
