Currently, the Chinese chestnut export season is in full swing. In general, the export market is operating stably. Compared with the same period last year, the overall export price has increased by about 15%, while the domestic market price has dropped by about 10%.
This year, across the country, extreme weather such as continuous drought and rain frequently occurred, which affected the output of various agricultural products to varying degrees, and chestnuts were also among them. This season, the production of Chinese chestnuts has been reduced by about 60%, which is one of the reasons for the increase in export prices.
