| Abstract [eng] |
The tendencies for production of fruit and berry products as well as sales and prices in the domestic and foreign markets are analysed in the paper. The consumption period of fruit and berry products is rather short; therefore, the production amounts highly depend on the demand that, due to the lower purchasing power in the recession period, went down. But in 2010 the of production of fruit and berry products started to recover slightly: in the Ist half-year the amounts of juice and other fruit and berry products in Lithuania increased. Lithuania’s domestic market in is not large; many people has a habit to prepare the most part of consumed fruit and berry products themselves. Because of these reasons, nearly half of products produced are sold in foreign markets where usually the price is higher. Until 2008 the Lithuanian processors of fruit and berries had been increasing prices in both the domestic and foreign markets. But the export prices had been growing faster than those in Lithuania. Due to a larger competition in foreign markets, during the economic recession the export prices were cut more than those in the domestic market. |
