Analysis of import substitution and development of the domestic fruit and berry market in Russia

Abstract

In the context of international sanctions, the issue of providing the population with domestically produced fruits and berries remains relevant for Russia. Currently, our own production of fruits and berries provides approximately 22 kg/year per person, with an annual requirement of 100 kg. The article discusses the features of providing the Russian market with fruits and berries in the context of the ongoing policy of import substitution. Particular attention is paid to domestic production of apples; the structure of production and consumption of apples by region is given. The import of apples into Russia has been analyzed, and trends in its decline have been noted.
