Turkey. In MY 2020/21, orange production is estimated to decrease 1.3 million MT

30.06.2021 18:05 "Agro Perspectiva" (Kyiv) — Following are selected highlights from a report issued by a U. S. Department of Agriculture attache in The Ankara, in MY 2020/21, orange production is estimated to decrease 1.3 million MT, which is 23 percent lower than MY 2019/20 (1.7 million MT), due to excessive hot weather conditions in May 2020 during the blooming period of trees. High price increases on input costs such as electricity, fertilizer, and chemicals continue. Fertilizer prices are especially worrisome for Turkish producers, with a 60–90 percent increase in the last marketing year.

In March 2021, crops of the Valencia variety have started harvesting in Antalya province. Most Valencia oranges are exported. In the domestic market, this variety is used for fresh juice.

In April 2020, shortly after the COVID-19 patient/death numbers started to rise significantly in Turkey, orange farm gate selling prices started to rise as citrus demand from the domestic market increased due to its high Vitamin C content, thought to help boost the immune system. The price increase is helpful for orange producers who were experiencing low farm prices for years, despite high retail market prices.

Consumption:

In MY 2020/21, orange consumption is expected to decrease to 976,000 MT in correlation with low production expectations. Consumption has been decreasing for the last three years due to low supply and high market prices. Although consumption temporarily rose during winter of MY 2020/21 due to COVID-19, it is expected to be lower than the previous year due to lower supply and higher prices. Consumption has also been negatively affected by the closure of restaurants, cafes, and pubs during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Trade:

In MY 2020/21, orange exports are forecast to decrease 10 percent to 263,000 MT when compared with the previous season, in correlation with low yield expectation. Total orange exports in the first six months of MY 2020/21 dropped 24 percent when compared with the same period of MY 2019/20. Russia is the biggest market for orange exports from Turkey; exports to Russia in the first six months of MY 2020/21 remained stable with the same period of MY 2019/20. However, orange export to Iraq, which is the second biggest export market for Turkey, dropped 45 percent when compared with the same period of MY 2019/20.
