Nectarine
The nectarine is one of peach varieties. In 2014 peach & nectarine Russian import volume amounted 225 399 tons. The share of these fruit in total Russian fruit import reached about 4% by results of 2014. Generally peaches & nectarines came to Russian market from the UE countries, such as Spain (with the volume share of 50% in 2013-2014), Greece (with the share of 17,9%) & Italy (with 4,8%). The total volume share of these countries exceeded 75% by results of those years. Turkish share at another point was about 5,4%.
But the situation changed dramatically after the EU fruit import embargo had been imposed. Turkish import went up by 70% & its share in total volume increased to 9%. Supplies from such countries as China (+76% to 2013), Israel & Belarus (+86% to 2013) also were up. The import volume from the countries of Central Asia (Uzbekistan, Azerbaijan) & Caucasus (Georgia, Armenia) also expanded.
