Chile's avocado harvest is estimated to have fallen to 186,000 tons this season
According to Francisco Contardo, executive director of the Chilean Avocado Committee, this season's production was affected by the severe spring frosts, which caused the harvest to fall to 186,000 tons, a figure notably lower than the 220,000 tons achieved last season. The country will export nearly 100,000 tons of avocado in the 2022-2023 campaign.
