Abstract
The production of plums and apricots represent respectively the fifth and ninth worldwide production of pome or stone fruits and show an increase compared to ten years ago.
Global plum production reaches 12.3 million tons, with significant levels of concentration in East Asia and Europe, but also considerable productions on the South American and African continents.
It encompasses several varietal types dedicated to both fresh and processing markets, with outlets ranging from local markets to large-scale exports.
In apricots, global production amounts to 3.7 million tons with a significant concentration between southern Asia and the Mediterranean region.
Once again, products are destined for local markets or export, in either fresh or processed form (notably dried).
