With the gradual approach of winter, the 2022/23 crop season apple yield gradually clear. Affected by the decline in fruit tree planting area superimposed on adverse weather, apple production has decreased significantly this year. Shanghai Steel Union's Agricultural Products Network previously estimated the national apple output to be 32.836 million tons through research and satellite remote sensing, down 22.60 from 2019 (42.4254 million tons). Year on year 2017 (41.39 million tons) down 20.67. In addition, the USDA expects pear production in the 2022/23 crop season to drop 5% year-on-year to 17.85 million tons.

With the recent production area late Fuji storage work into the final stage, the storage data also gradually verified the expected production reduction. As of November 17, the national cold storage work has basically ended, with a storage capacity of 8.3385 million tons, an increase of 126800 tons from last week and a decrease of 412400 tons, or 4.7 percent, compared with last year. Therefore, in terms of the total supply of fruits, this year's reduction in production will lead to a reduction in supply, and the inventory of apples is the lowest in recent years, making the current and future prices of apples reach the relatively high prices of the past few years.
