The Mexican avocado production for MY 2021/22 is forecast to be 8% lower than the record production observed in the previous MY of 2.33M mt. The decrease is due to reduced tree productivity during the tree recovery season. Mexican avocado exports are estimated to have an 8% to 10% YoY growth in volume in 2022 despite the decrease in production, driven by a continuous increase in demand in the US. High international demand and attractive global prices have encouraged producers to export products for higher returns.
