This document provides an overview of the fruit industry in Indonesia. It discusses the country's history, geography, climate, and biodiversity. It then focuses on the current situation of fruits in Indonesia, including the main centers of production, exports by province, uses of tropical fruits, and world imports. Industry analysis is also briefly discussed for Russia and reasons why Indonesia and Russia merit business attention in the tropical fruit industry.

43. The total (values grown steadily)

44. Production has shown substantial increase

45. The total (value) of fresh fruit exports increased

47. Apple production in recent years surpassed 60 million metric tons, enough to provide each person in the world with about 20 lbs of apples.

48. World production of apples is now about 2.5 times what it was in 1960. It rose over 25 percent between 1995 and 2005.

49. Apples are produced in many countries with a temperate climate. Newer varieties have permitted expansion of production into ever-hotter areas.

50. China is the largest apple producing country in the world. It now produces close to 40 percent of the world total.

51. China's apple production increased fourfold in the last decade. The rate of growth has been erratic since 2000, but absolute annual increases have been large.

52. The traditional center of commercial apple production was continental Europe. Europeans brought commercial apple-growing to many other parts of the world.

53. The United States is a distant second to China in apple production. France, Germany, Italy, Poland and Russia remain among the top ten apple producers.

54. Turkey, Iran and India are also major apple producers. However, most of their production is absorbed by their own rapidly-growing populations.

55. Major Southern Hemisphere apple producing countries include Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Chile, New Zealand and South Africa.

56. Less than ten percent of world apple production enters international fresh apple trade. Only a handful of countries engage in long-distance exporting.

57. The leading fresh apple exporting countries are China, France, the United States, Chile, Italy, New Zealand and South Africa.

58. A number of these countries also produce large volumes of concentrated apple juice for export.

59. The major import markets for fresh apples and concentrated apple juice are in the developed countries of Europe, North America and Asia.

63. Has a wide range of environments, ranging from low- to high-lands, wet and dry tropical regions.

64. Has tremendous biodiversity, hundreds of species and varieties, providing hundreds of species and varieties, providing opportunities for customer specific variety.

65. Environment diversity & biodiversity provide year-round harvestingBusiness Prospect for Tropical Fruits in Indonesia<br />The potential to develop tropical fruits is excellent provided that such development is targeted to an industry based on reliable production, postharvest, processing and marketing. <br />Tropical fruits are expected to be large export-income earners, so that the development of Indonesia's tropical fruits must be supported by commercial plantations. Thus, opportunities in the development of commercial orchards are tremendous. <br />Commercial orchards of fruit crops require technology inputs to the production, postharvest, processing and marketing systems. Therefore there are huge opportunities for the supply of fruit production, processing, grading, packaging, cold storage etc. equipment and facilities. <br />The main constraints to efficient production and quality improvement of fruit on a commercial scale are the knowledge and ability of human resources in adopting modern technology. Indonesia needs technical training. Opportunities exist for other interested countries to conduct courses/training for plant breeding, micro countries to conduct courses/training for plant breeding, micro propagation, marketing, harvesting, processing etc. <br />As Indonesia moves towards a market economy, its fruit situation and trade are increasingly dependent on consumer behavior. Also, the international market requires standardized high quality products. Several areas need collaboration on facilities and human resource development: <br />Quality assurance, standardization and certification <br />Long distance transport <br />Quarantine development <br />Consumer and Promotion Development.<br />Reason Why Russia<br />Almost one in three fruits is an apple. Five years ago it was one in five. Russia has recorded a real drop in the total fruit imports of 6% this year. The fall is small compared to the total fall in imports of 41% since the beginning of the year. The fall in fruit imports is a break with the trend of the last few years, when the volume grew an average of 12%.<br />We are launching apple in Russia because of its increasing demand and also increase in their imports. As according to the world report Russia is at 9th place in imports of fruits and also it is a very stable country and it’s per capital income is also very good and because of increase in imports of apples we are suggesting Pakistani exporter of fruits that Russia is a good market for apples.<br /> <br />
