Earlier Report Observations

The Russian currants and gooseberries market volume increased from 466 thousand tons in 2018 to 510 thousand tons in 2020. This growth was primarily driven by the widespread adoption of advanced agricultural techniques, including spring fertilization and pest control, which enhanced crop yields. Simultaneously, the development and introduction of new varieties, such as the Yoshta hybrid, expanded production capabilities and improved berry quality.

Between 2021 and 2023, market expansion accelerated, reaching 619 thousand tons. Western sanctions and currency fluctuations reduced import competition, directly stimulating domestic output. Additionally, state procurement programs under laws 44-FZ and 223-FZ created guaranteed demand, while ongoing improvements in plant protection and farming technology supported higher productivity.

In 2024, legislative changes strengthened regulatory oversight in the agricultural sector, and sustained consumer interest in healthy eating bolstered demand for fresh berries. The market continued to be influenced by the popularity of the Yoshta hybrid and a shift towards organic cultivation methods.
