Morocco’s Avocado Exports Surge to Record Levels Despite Drought

The Moroccan avocado has a bright future ahead of it. Moroccan avocado exports have almost doubled over the past five seasons, with 39% of exports in 2021/22 to Spain and 26% to France, followed by the Netherlands (19%), Germany (10%) and the United Kingdom (3%). Morocco exported a record volume of avocados during the period from July 2022 to January 2023, 35,500 tons, or 60% more than during the same months of the previous season, "when a total of 42,300 tons was exported", reports Maghreb-Intelligence.
