The producers of Italy and France expect a good harvest following the favorable weather, while the producers of Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain expect a significant decline. The significant increase in Italian production will contribute to the recovery of the EU's pear crop in the 2024/25 economic year, confirmed the World Apple and Pear Association (WAPA). Belgium, the Netherlands and Spain are expected to experience significant volume declines, meaning that the region's new season harvest will be just 1.79 million tonnes. This is 4.9% higher than last year's record low yield, but remains well below the traditional level of over 2 million tons.

European pear forecasts are the second lowest of the decade and pear forecasts are the third lowest.

According to WAPA, this year's EU pear harvest will be 5 percent more abundant than last year. The forecast presented at the Prognosfruit apple and pear world conference held in Budapest predicts a crop of 1.79 million tons in the EU.
