U.S. apple production is forecast to decline due to weather-damaged crops in Washington and Michigan. U.S. apple production is forecast to increase on a rebound in the top-producing state, Washington. Greater supplies are expected to raise exports, especially to top markets Mexico and Canada. U.S. table grape production is expected to see a modest recovery, rising above 900,000 tons. Despite improved supplies, exports are expected to decrease on reduced shipments to most top markets. U.S. orange production is forecast to drop 11 percent to a near record low of 3.6 million tons, due to poor fruit set in California and the continued decline in area and yields in Florida as a result of citrus greening. Exports are forecast to be down with the lower production. Rebounding cherry production is forecast to lift exports, halting a three-year decline. New growth markets for fresh fruit and vegetables include the Dominican Republic, Kuwait, and Peru. Over the last 10 years, the growth rate for fresh vegetables has been trending up on the strength of shipments to Canada, Mexico, and the EU, while fresh fruit exports continue to decline from their 2013 peak, primarily due to lower table grape, apple, and orange production.
