Apple, Citrus and Other Fruit and Nut Growing in New Zealand

The Apple, Citrus and Other Fruit and Nut Growing industry grows a variety of products for sale to domestic and export markets. Industry products include apples, pears, stone fruit, citrus fruit, avocados, olives and nuts. The industry excludes kiwifruit, berries, grapes and peanut growers. The industry has performed moderately over the past five years, with mixed impacts stemming from lower-than-average rainfall, strong export growth and a depreciating New Zealand dollar. Apples, pears and stone fruits have performed particularly well in domestic and export markets. Despite this performance, industry revenue is expected to fall at an annualised 0.1% over the five years through 2022-23, to total $925.3 million. This trend includes an anticipated decrease of 0.7% in the current year due to a significant decline in annual rainfall.

Industry operators mainly grow apples, pears, stone fruit, citrus fruit, olives and other fruits and nuts. Growers of kiwifruit, berries, grapes and peanuts are excluded from the industry.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
