Earlier Report Observations
Jordan's fresh or chilled aubergine market experienced significant fluctuations between 2018 and 2023. After a drop in 2019, market volume rebounded and reached its highest point in 2023, showing an overall upward trend despite yearly variations. The decline in 2019 was followed by a recovery phase where domestic production became the primary driver of market size, given consistently minimal imports.
In 2020, the market volume grew as a sharp reduction in aubergine exports left more produce available for domestic consumption. At the same time, local vegetable prices rose due to a production gap and market practices, indicating supply-side pressures that likely encouraged domestic growers to adjust output. This period highlighted how external trade shifts and internal supply conditions directly affected the volume of aubergines reaching Jordanian consumers.
Production surged in 2021, lifting the market to over 70,000 t before a modest contraction in 2022. By 2023, the market expanded again to 72,643 t, reflecting resilient domestic demand and a recovery from prior volatility, with production levels consistently determining market volume throughout the period.
