Upswing for Spanish peach and nectarine exports

Upswing for Spanish peach and nectarine exports

Wednesday September 04 2013

Spanish peach and nectarine exports to all of the top three markets were up in January-May this year, after falling last year. There seems to be an alternating pattern to these markets.

This may be down to the alternate bearing effect - certainly, it can be seen in the prices as well as the volumes. Prices were low when volumes were high in 2011, and vice versa in 2012.
