Blueberries—Volume dropped by -11.7% this week compared to the prior week, and there isgenerally very little volume around. Quality continues to “average” but this is what we expect for

this time of year. Strawberries – Volume into retail dropped by -8.7% vs the prior week. Cooler conditions in VIC will see volumes continue to slow down. Stanthorpe have decent growing conditions this week, with only a wet day on Thursday forecasted with maximum temps in the low 20s and minimum temps floating around 10-12 degrees. It’s also been noted that some of the Winter QLD farms are currently having their first walk through. This fruit appeared in the central markets mid last week and we expect the harvests to be sporadic for many weeks to come. Great berry growing conditions continue in southwest WA, with warmer days at the back end of the week.

Raspberries—Volumes in SEQ and Northern NSW continue to increase, with a flatlining ofvolume coming out of VIC and the drop from TAS. We saw a good jump in volume for the Coffs Coast region, has continued into the start of this week. Demand over the weekend dropped with the average weather and we are seeing the slight drop in demand in NSW as they move into their second week of school holidays. Quality across the board has been good.

Blackberries—Production significantly dropped week on week. Our charts show a big jump involume compared to last year, but please note this is off a small base.
