Earlier Report Observations
Between 2018 and 2023, the aubergine market in Bahrain experienced a significant contraction in overall volume, falling from 5 839 t in 2019 to 3 277 t in 2023. This decline occurred despite a consistent and substantial rise in domestic production, which more than doubled from 1 394 t to 2 500 t over the same period.
The market's downward trend was driven primarily by a sharp and sustained drop in import volumes, which fell from 4 218 t in 2018 to just 778 t in 2023. This steep reduction in imports, particularly the 66% single-year drop from 2022 to 2023, overwhelmed the growth in local output, leading to a net decrease in total market supply.
