According to a report released by New Zealand’s Ministry for Primary Industries at the end of 2021, New Zealand exported NZ$2.7 billion (US$1.8 billion) worth of kiwifruit during the 2020/21 season (from July to June), an increase of 6% compared to the previous season and accounting for 57% of New Zealand’s total produce exports by value. The report also forecasts that New Zealand’s kiwifruit exports in the 2021/22 season will reach NZ$2.9 billion (US$2.0 billion), with this growth mainly driven by the yellow-fleshed SunGold variety.
