    In recent years, due to the strong consumer demand for avocados, Australian fruit farmers have followed the trend in planting, and many fruit trees planted in the previous two years have begun to blossom and bear fruit this year
    .
    In addition, avocados can grow throughout the year in many parts of Australia, resulting in a 65% increase in supply this year, and the market retail price is only about 1/3 of the previous
    .
     
    According to the ABC Agricultural Channel, Australia’s avocado production is expected to reach 120,000 tons in 2021, compared with less than 80,000 tons last year
    .

    .
     
    According to data from the Australian Avocado Association, in 2026, five years from now, Australian avocado production will reach 170,000 tons, which is more than twice the output in 2020
    .
    The Australian avocado industry has launched a large number of publicity activities across the country, urging everyone to eat more avocados, but it still cannot get rid of the slow sales
    .

    .
    In order to expand overseas markets, Australia has set its sights on Asia and increased exports to Singapore, Malaysia, Japan and Hong Kong
    .
    Avocado prices fell, but also to the Australian avocado more competitive in the export market
    .
     
      At present, Australian avocado is expected to open the Indian market soon
    .
    China is also one of Australia's target markets, but it takes a long-term process to gain access to the Chinese market
