The current situation of trading the fruits and vegetables is going on better that processed in the past in Uzbekistan. in general point of my view is that Uzbekistan is one of the leading producers of fresh fruits and vegetables in central Asia. To be proud of that, Uzbekistan is among the top 5 producers of apricots in the world, the sixth largest mass producer of cherries, and 17th in apple fruit production made that can be a reason why mentioned Uzbekistan’s export of fruits and vegetables are being increased as fast as other countries according to Food and Agriculture Organization statistics.
However, in Uzbekistan the March month ‘weather of 2022 year, anomalies caused serious damage to the harvest of cherries, apricots, and almonds

2.1 Fruit and vegetable export of Uzbekistan
March weather of 2021 and 2022, anomalies had almost no influence on the harvest of other types of fruits according to the policy of Food organization.
There is a reason why it is mentioned that shows a large amount of harvest of figs, pears, plums, peaches, and nectarines in Uzbekistan in 2022 and it has an influence of being low prices for them which made it to have a possibility to sharply increase their export volumes. Apart from that point of my view is that the high yield of watermelons and melons, and relatively low prices allowed to significantly increase their exports.

In general thinking is that Fresh figs were a highly demanded export commodity of Uzbekistan in the fruit segment in 2022. In the current season of Uzbekistan is the volume of exports of fresh figs in physical terms exceeded the total volume of their exports over the past five years by 7 times. The export season of figs from Uzbekistan in 2022 started in the second decade of June and ended in the second decade of September. Uzbekistan exported 7,200 of fresh figs worth 1.9 million US dollar in June-September, which was a record. pears were also a highly demanded commodity for export from Uzbekistan in 2022. Exports of the first batches of Uzbek fresh pears started in the second half of June with early varieties. According to official data, Uzbekistan exported a record volume of fresh pears in June-November 2022 was 5,200 tonnes worth 2,3 million US dollar, while pear exports in physical terms did not exceed 1 000 tonnes in previous years.
