Export campaign getting going on a dynamic market
Southern Hemisphere kiwi exports will be dominated by New Zealand, which has declared a harvest of around 700 000 tonnes. The first shipments started in early April to the Asian markets, and in mid-April to Europe. The Chilean harvest appears to be pretty similar to 2020, at around 146 000 tonnes. It will mainly comprise Hayward, but with a rise in yellow kiwi shipments from the first weeks of April. As for Argentina and South Africa, their exports remain minimal, although they are on the up. Southern Hemisphere kiwis are arriving on a more than dynamic end-of-campaign market in the Northern Hemisphere.
