Greek peaches exported to Jordan
The Greek peach season, specifically the "Angeleno" variety, is nearing its end as fruit quality and sizes decline, and prices rise in some high-quality markets. The majority of exports are received by Jordanian and Egyptian markets, where fruits have been sold at around 0.40 euros per kilogram, with prices decreasing despite ongoing demand. Fruit sizes range between 40 and 50 millimeters for the secondary varieties, and 50 to 60 millimeters for the primary ones, with approximately 90% of the harvest concentrated in the secondary variety, primarily targeted at the Jordanian and Egyptian markets. Seasonal issues included small fruit sizes and moderate quality due to high production costs and the absence of certain crop protection products, which led to surface blemishes on the fruit. The season is expected to end by the end of the month, after farmers sold all their produce at low prices amid financial challenges caused by rising labor and fuel costs.
