Earlier Report Observations

Fresh pear production in Sub-Saharan Africa increased from 408.3 thousand tonnes in 2018 to 559.9 thousand tonnes in 2022, reflecting consistent growth over five years. The most notable surge occurred in 2022, when output rose by nearly 19% compared to the previous year. However, production contracted by 12% in 2023, falling to 493.0 thousand tonnes.

In 2024, extreme weather events, including storms and strong winds at the port of Cape Town, disrupted logistics during the 2023/2024 season. Additionally, regional and international trade policies, such as new U.S. tariff measures, influenced market access and competitiveness for agricultural products from the region.
