Mr. Mustafa Arslan, owner of MDA Agriculture Company, talks to Froutonea Magazine (November issue #202) about this year’s expectations on Turkish lemons.

The reason for the sharp decline in the production of chestnuts in Italy in recent years and therefore the surge in imports of the product from Greece, explains in the following interview at “Froutonea Magazine” Mr. Lorenzo Bazzana, Manager of Imports-Exports of “Coldiretti” fruit and vegetable company.

The owner of “Notos Trading LTD” Mr. Lior Touron, believes that changes in the exchange rate may influence this year’s volume of Israeli exports. He also notes that the production cost increases disproportionately to the prices that the growers have to sell the product.

The season in pomegranates in the area of Elche in the Province of Alicante starts like every year in early October with the local variety “Mollar De Elche”. The President of the Consortium “Granadas de Elche”, Mr. Francisco Oliva, shares his predictions for the volume and quality of production and expresses great optimism about demand in Spanish pomegranates.

The Turkish producers have to face many quality problems with the pomegranates which have been harvested until mid-September. The producers hope that the “Hicaz” variety will reverse the situation. Mr. Mustafa Arslan, owner of commercial enterprise “MDA Agriculture Company” talks to “Froutonea magazine” for the pomegranate season in Turkey.

“Personally, I am confident that the new harvest is going to begin in a climate of restored confidence”, states Gerhard Dichgans, Director of the “VOG Consortium” and he also declares that the prospects for the new harvest look good after the successful conclusion of sales of 2014’s plentiful crop.
