It is clear from preliminary figures that the export figure for onions from week 31 may also be there. Although it is not a record week, that does not affect the result. How far is the preliminary result from a record?
Based on the first figures, the export result for week 31 amounts to 18.469 tons. This season should therefore cover the harvest years 2016 to 2020; which varied between 18.801 tons and 22.200 tons.
The largest buyer of Dutch onions in week 31 was Ivory Coast with a volume of 5.147 tons. This brings the total exported to Ivory Coast in the new season to 11.834 tons.
