The exports of fresh peaches and nectarines from the US are forecasted to decline steadily from 2024 to 2028. As of 2023, the exports were recorded at 134.6 million pounds. Compared to the 2023 baseline, this indicates a persistent decrease, with a projected annual decline rate (CAGR) of approximately 3% over the five years. The year-on-year analysis highlights a consistent downward trend, as reflected in the percentage declines each year.
Key trends to watch include the potential impacts of climate change on peach and nectarine yields, trade policy shifts, and evolving consumer preferences that could either mitigate or exacerbate these export declines.
