Our avocado edition offers extensive coverage on the exciting developments for the fast-emerging category in Asia. Fruitnet analyst Wayne Prowse provides a statistical overview of the global avocado trade into Asia. Imports grew by 30 per cent year-on-year in 2023, with China overtaking Japan to become Asia’s largest importer.
North America correspondent, Jeff Long, shares how Peru maintains its edge in Asia, while rounding up export developments for other key Latin American suppliers. South Africa correspondent Fred Meintjes also reports on the recent market access breakthroughs for the industry in China and India.
Our in-depth cover story homes in on Australian avocado industry’s new marketing campaign in India.

We talk to leading industry players about the promising start for Australian avocados in India, and the keys to capitalising on the growth potential.
