2023 and Record-High Blueberry Prices Worldwide

In 2023, blueberry prices reached record levels in Europe, the United States, and other global markets due to a decrease in the harvest in Peru, caused by high temperatures and unusual rainfall during flowering, phenomena linked to the impact of “El Niño”. This phenomenon also affected the prices of other products such as mangoes and grapes.
