Earlier Report Observations

Afghanistan's apple market volume grew strongly from 217.2 thousand tons in 2018 to a peak of 414.3 thousand tons in 2021. This expansion was supported by a consistent rise in domestic production, which increased from 217.2 to 324.0 thousand tons over the period, and a major inflow of imports starting in 2020.

After 2021, the total market volume stabilized, recording 412.8 thousand tons in 2022 and 400.3 thousand tons in 2023. This plateau coincided with a moderation in import volumes and fluctuating export levels, which influenced the net supply available within the country.
