# Executive Summary

Our new tomato paste production estimates show output for MY2006 as
smaller than last year, as the canning industry contracted a smaller
planted area of tomatoes from producers, so total output of tomatoes for
processing will fall. Fresh tomato production is expected to stay at
similar levels to MY2005, as planting takes place throughout the year.

## For Fresh Consumption

Planting of tomatoes for fresh consumption fell slightly back in 2004,
as demand shifted to other horticultural products. Industry sources
indicated that many marginal tomato producers went out of business or
switched to other horticultural products. In spite of an increase in
export demand, at least for MY2005, planted area and total output are
not expected to increase in the coming years. As exports to Argentina
fell due to their change in exchange policy, Chile's main greenhouse
tomato producers reduced their production. In the long run, planted area
is forecasted to stay unchanged. According to industry sources, domestic
demand for tomatoes is not expected to increase in the near future, as
other horticultural products have begun to displace tomatoes.

Although greenhouse planted area with drip-irrigation systems has
increased during the last few years tomatoes planted in open fields
still accounts for 80 percent of the total planted area. Although most
tomatoes are produced in the irrigated central valley of Chile, tomatoes
for fresh consumption are planted throughout Chile from Arica to Tierra
del Fuego.

## For Processing

Total planted area of tomatoes for processing has fallen significantly
since MY2003, from an estimated 11,000 hectares to only 8,000 in MY2006.
A slight increase is expected again in MY2007 as production in the
northern hemisphere, mainly in the US was affected by adverse weather
conditions resulting in a significant reduction in output. As a result,
the industry in Chile expects prices for tomato paste to recuperate and
thus they are increasing production again in response to an expected
increasing demand. Industry sources indicated that in the long run
planted area is not expected to vary significantly for the coming years,
as the tomato processing industry is reportedly producing tomato paste
for niche markets and for long-term customers. Presently there are only
two processing industries in Chile that produce tomato paste and these
reportedly have most of their production committed at the time they fix
planting contracts with the farmers. Sources also indicate that in the
long run, planted area and production figures probably will not vary
significantly as the industry is presently producing at more than 85
percent of capacity. Chile's tomato production (planting and processing)
represents less than 4 percent of total world production.

Tomatoes for processing are planted from mid‑September through early
November of each year and harvested from early-mid January through mid
April. During the planting season, frosts are an important limiting
factor in many growing areas. A dry summer, with significant temperature
changes between day and night during the growing season, allows growers
to produce tomatoes with a deep red color. Over 95 percent of tomatoes
harvested for processing are destined for paste production. The tomato
products industry mainly targets the export market.

Tomatoes for industrial purposes are planted in the central area
(Regions V through VII ‑ including the Santiago Metropolitan Region).

# Tomato Products

## Canned Tomatoes

Chile produces whole peeled, crushed peeled and diced tomatoes. Trade
figures and PS&D tables include all three products since statistics
contain no product breakout. Most canned tomatoes are produced for
export. Canned tomato production is highly dependent on export demand.
Customers in the domestic or export market normally contract yearly
production. Canned tomatoes are produced mainly for the Latin American
market.

## Tomato Paste

Tomato paste production in MY2006 is now estimated to be less than
80,000 MT. A significant fall from the 115,000 MT produced in MY2003.
This resulted mainly due to low international prices during the previous
year. The industry in Chile contracts tomato plantings and produces
paste according to an expected demand for paste. Farmers plant tomatoes
only by contact with the industry. For MY2007, a small increase is
expected again as production in the US has been affected by adverse
weather conditions.

The paste industry in Chile mainly produces a 30 to 32 Brix product.
Small amounts are produced with 28 to 30 Brix for the Japanese market.
As a result of industry mergers, sales of processing plants, and joint
ventures with foreign companies, there are now only two players in the
tomato paste industry in Chile today. The two companies are Aconcagua
Foods and Agrozzi. Aconcagua Foods, which used to be Corpora bought
several processing plants over the last few years and also established a
joint venture with a Mexican Company named La Costena, a leading canned
product producer and distribution company. Meanwhile Agrozzi, took
control of Malloa, a tomato processing company that used to belong to
Lever, a multinational company, and became the largest producer in
Chile.

## Tomato Sauce

Tomato sauce production, like canned tomato production, is closely
related to export demand. For this coming season a slight decrease in
output is expected as industry expects a weaker foreign demand.

# Production Policy

There are no government subsidies for tomatoes. Most imports are subject
to a fixed general tariff of 6 percent ad valorem. All products pay an
additional 19 percent value added tax.

## 

# Consumption

## Fresh Tomatoes

There are no statistics on domestic consumption in Chile. Usually, we
assume no significant change in domestic consumption, although high
prices due to a smaller supply may reduce consumption some years.
Figures are estimated as a residual of estimated production and export
data.

Shelf life influences which tomato varieties are used in Chile. Improved
shelf life has allowed growers to produce tomatoes in the extreme north
of Chile (Arica) and transport them to major population centers 1,000
miles to the south e.g., Santiago, mainly during the winter season. This
development has permitted a constant fresh tomato supply during the
entire year, contributing to an increase in total fresh tomato
consumption together with a fall in prices over the last four years.
However increased competition from other horticultural products is
expected to modestly affect domestic consumption of fresh tomatoes over
the next few years. The most common varieties planted in Chile are
Cal-ace, Marmande raf, Ac 55 vf, Early pack, Napoli and Roma.

## Processed Tomatoes

Since Chilean processed tomato production is mainly for the export
market, domestic utilization is fundamentally a residual. As previously
mentioned there are no statistics on domestic consumption. However,
industry sources point to a moderate expansion in the consumption of
paste and sauce, in line with the spread of fast‑food and pizza
restaurants in Chile.

# Trade

## Fresh

Chile\'s fresh tomato exports are tied to export demand. Argentina is by
far Chile\'s largest export market. Since Argentina is overcoming last
year's economic crisis, exports of fresh tomatoes to that market are
expected to return to past levels again. Producers also are increasing
their effort to develop new markets

Although Chile can export fresh tomatoes to the U.S., the industry is
not optimistic about that market due to fumigation requirements, which
reduce the products shelf life and the need to ship the product by air
in order to compete in quality with other imports. As a result of
limited space in airfreight and competition for that space with more
profitable commodities, like berries and salmon, fresh Chilean tomatoes
generally are not price - competitive with Mexican tomatoes that are
produced year round closer to the U.S. market.

## Processed

Tomato Paste: Neighboring Latin American countries are Chile's main
export markets. Venezuela is the largest market. Economic instability in
most Latin American countries make exports uncertain. But the industry
is optimistic, as they believe they have developed a relationship with
most of their customers, demonstrating an ability to deliver similar
amounts of tomato paste year after year. The two processors indicated
that they normally contract planting areas with farmers to produce
enough tomato paste to supply their export needs. But, when lower
production is expected from the most important tomato paste producer in
the northern hemisphere, the industry increases production hoping to
supply an unsatisfied demand.

Tomato Sauce: The industry has been able to diversify the tomato sauce
export market, which was highly concentrated. Nevertheless most exports
are destined for neighboring Latin American countries, whose economies
are more or less stagnant. Consequently, growth in exports is unlikely
in the next few years.

Canned Tomatoes: Although the industry is making a concentrated effort
to expand markets in neighboring Latin American countries, demand for
Chile\'s canned tomatoes has been falling over the last few years.
