According to a report by the Asoex Chilean Blueberry Committee, prepared by Iqonsulting, so far from the 2019 - 2020 season, the Far East has received 18% of Chilean blueberry volumes, experiencing 31% growth .

North America has received 48% of the volumes, with a drop of 7%. While Europe has received 33% of shipments, with a growth of 3%.

In the second week 10.158 tons were dispatched, reaching an accumulated of 66.742 tons, a figure very similar to that registered in the same week of the 2018 - 2019 season.

However, despite the similarity, there are differences in crop dynamics. On the one hand, early and mid-season varieties began their season earlier and reached volume peaks earlier than the previous year.

In addition, the cases that have presented a smaller volume due to shorter harvests and lighter fruits were compensated by the increase in the volumes of later varieties of the central zone and the increase in surface area of ​​the southern zone, which explain part of the registered volume during the second week.

Meanwhile, surface growth has been concentrated in the central south and south. Therefore, the volumes are higher than expected. If the climate is still favorable, with renewed varieties, it is estimated that the figure will be 5 tons larger than the previous season, reaching 115 tons projected.

On the other hand, shipments of organic blueberries are still upward. During week 2, 1.457 tons were exported, accumulating 7.589 tons to date, 37% more than the previous season. North America continues to be the main destination with 73% of shipments, while Europe is the second, with a 21% share.
