In Türkiye, while dried figs continue to dry, they have also started to take their place in the markets in the domestic market. The first exports usually start in the first weeks of October, which has caused the domestic market to become active up until now. Although it officially starts in October, those who have fig stocks from last year have started to export the new crop.

There is not much change in prices for now, but we will wait until October to see what will happen when the official exports start.

For producers, managing the timing of exports and domestic sales effectively can impact profitability and market position. Early exports might offer advantages but also come with risks related to market timing and price stability. For buyers and consumers, understanding the timing of market changes and potential price adjustments can help in making informed purchasing decisions.
