Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2020, Paraguay's apple market volume increased from 15 248 tons to a peak of 19 934 tons, driven primarily by rising imports. This growth period saw the launch of experimental apple cultivation in 2018 with technical support from Japanese cooperation JICA, followed in 2019 by producer visits to Brazil to learn production techniques for similar climates, initiating local sector development.

After stabilizing at 19 623 tons in 2021, the market contracted to 17 639 tons in 2022 and further to 15 236 tons in 2023. The downturn in 2022 aligned with a global surge in fertilizer prices that raised agricultural input costs, likely influencing import affordability and volumes.
