WAPA, the World Apple and Pear Association, collects every month the stock figures for apples and pears from Europe and the United States. WAPA can reveal that European apple stocks stood at 2,935,962 T as of 1 March 2022, which is 8.6% above the figure of 2021. This was mainly driven by the increases concerning Red Jonaprince (54% up from 2021), Jonagold (+27.9%), Golden Delicious (+23.3%), and Gala (+18.4%), and despite the decrease in some major varieties, including Granny Smith (-20%) and Cripps Pink (-14.9%). On the other hand, pear stocks stood at 388,495 T on 1 March 2022, 14.9% below the volume of 2021. The decrease in the Italian varieties (Abate Fetel -97.8% and Kaiser -95.2%) was partially mitigated by the stark increase in Portugal’s Rocha pears (+59,614 T compared to March 2021).
In the USA, apple stocks in March stood at 1,275,346 T (+1.6% compared to 2021). The decrease among several large varieties, such as Fuji (-20.8%), Red Delicious (-11.7%), and Gala (-9%) was compensated by the 216.5% increase in Cosmic Crisp apples, which reached 51.576 T, and the 36.5% increase in the Granny Smith variety. Pears stocks in the USA stood at 111,912 T, which is 37.7% above last year.
