In 2023, the harvested production of subtropical and tropical fruits in Spain stood at 956.74 thousand metric tons. The year-on-year variation exhibited a modest growth of 1.2% compared to the previous year. Over the past two years, the sector experienced a declining trend, marked by substantial decreases in 2022 and 2021. However, analyzing the five-year CAGR reveals a more nuanced perspective, with a negative average annual variation of -4.8% from 2018 to 2023.

This suggests a gradual stabilization and a potential rebound in the production of subtropical and tropical fruits in Spain.
Future trends to watch for include the adaptation of farming practices to climate change, technological advancements in agriculture, and potential shifts in market demand for these fruits. Monitoring these factors will be crucial for sustaining and enhancing production levels in the upcoming years.
