**Report Highlights:**

Spanish Marketing Year (MY) 2005/06 production of fresh deciduous fruit
for canning will be up from MY 2004/05 levels enabling processors to
process and export more fruit, when compared to last year's very low
levels. The upcoming European Union (EU) fruit policy reform may reduce
fruit production for processing, and ultimately, exports of canned
deciduous fruit. (LR40PM8CM3SH2)

# Executive Summary

-   Spanish canned peach exports during Marketing Year (MY) 2005/06
    (June/May) will be up at some 60,000 metric tons (MT), from
    exceptionally low previous year levels (52,000 MT). Nevertheless,
    projected export levels will fall short of average levels of 66,000
    MT during the MY 2001/02 to MY 2005/06. We expect that some 30
    percent of the MY 2005/06 exports will be shipped into Saudi Arabia,
    U.S., Canada, South Korea and other non-EU destinations;

-   Local canned pear exports during MY 2005/06 will be at some 13,000
    MT (11,300 MT in MY 2004/05), due to a higher local fresh pear
    production. This level of exports also falls short of the average
    previous five-year level of 13,400 MT. We expect that some 17
    percent of Spanish MY 2005/06 canned pear exports will be shipped
    into Japan, the U.S, Switzerland and other non-EU destinations;

-   Spanish canned mixed fruit exports during MY 2005/06 will likely
    reach 9,500 MT (9,400 MT in 2004/05), slightly above the previous
    five-year average of 8,300 MT. Some 16 percent of total MY 2005/06
    exports will be shipped into Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and other
    third-country destinations.

-   The canned fruit sector profits from the EU-subsidy regime.
    According to official data, over 95 percent of Spanish canned peach,
    and almost 100 percent of canned pear production is subsidized.

-   The EU has plans to revise its fruit and vegetables policy, but
    producers have been successful delaying this revision. Our sources
    believe it may now be discussed during the second semester of 2006.
    If adopted along expected lines, the future fruit policy reform may
    lead to a reduction in local canned fruit production. The reform
    will tend to discourage fruit production on marginal areas, leading
    to a reduction in local processing fruit supply.

-   We expect that a future EU fruit policy revision will imply
    introduction of similar principles to the ones introduced in the CAP
    reform negotiated in CY-2003 for most sectors. We can expect that
    producer subsidies will be at least partly decoupled and integrated
    in the Single Farm Payment.

## 

We indicated in the PSD Table the total amounts of fresh peaches used in
canning, except for the amount used for mixing, which we included in the
PSD for Canned Mixed Fruit.

The difference in total fruit delivery to the Spanish industry, and the
total delivery data given by the producers derives from the fact that

EU member states.

We indicated in the PSD Table the total amounts of fresh peaches used in
canning, except for the amount used for mixing, which we included in the
PSD for Canned Mixed Fruit.

The difference in total fruit delivery to the Spanish industry, and the
total delivery data given by the producers derives from the fact that
large quantities of local production are processed in other EU member
states.

The Spanish Pear Contract Commission (COSEPER) reports that other than
Spain, local pear growers sell processing pears into France, Italy and
the Netherlands.
