Farmers' Syndicate Highlights Egypt's Strawberry Export Leadership
The article discusses Egypt's global dominance in the export of frozen strawberries, where it ranked first in 2025 with an export value of approximately $690 million, through the export of about 557,000 tons, accounting for 36% of total global exports. The President of Farmers explained that the preference for freezing is due to the fruit's rapid spoilage and its inability to withstand high temperatures or long transport durations, making freezing the most suitable option for preserving quality during shipping. He pointed out that cultivated areas range between 30,000 and 70,000 acres, and the economic return for a single season can reach $650 million. He also noted changes in strawberry flavor caused by climate variations and new varieties, with agricultural focus shifting towards high productivity and profitability rather than taste.
