Spain: Volumes dropped by 40%
The Spanish kaki campaign is not off to a good start for many Valencian producers, whove have their crops severely damaged by frost and hail storms. In fact, the Spanish production will be reduced by around 40% due to such climatic adversities.
The lack of volume is remarkable this year, as even though there are new plantations entering into production in Spain, they will not be enough to compensate for the volume losses, says an exporter.
