Review of the 2003/2004 avocado season : waiting for special offers...

Consumption has not increased this season. However, it displayed a break in the supply cycle for the winter market, which has been very irregular from one year to the next since 1997/1998. There have also been changes in the proportions of different origins. Although the decrease in quantities shipped from Israel was simply conjunctural, the return of Mexico and the rapid development of South American origins seem to be more lasting. Supplies should be markedly more plentiful in the coming winter season.
