The aim of this work was to define the changes in the utilization of apple production
in Poland in t
he years 1961
-
2008. This period includes 29 years of planned economy and
19 years of market economy. The main source of data for this study were publications of
Polish Central Statistical Office (GUS), FAO,
and the
Institute of Agricultural and Food
Econom
ics in Warsaw
(IERiG
Ż
). The percentage of apples used for processing increased
from 50% in the 1980’s to about 70% in the 1990’s to 80% at the beginning of the new
century.
Apple consumption per capita
did not vary much in the years 1961
-
2008.
However,
the consumption
of all kinds of fruit increased by about 40% during this period
in line with the increase in the average monthly salary.
The consumption of apples on the
domestic market was much more evenly distributed throughout the year in market
economy times. Further
growth in apple production in Poland will be possible through
increases in fresh fruit exports and in processing, and through better balancing of the
seasonality of consumption. At present, locally grown apples in Poland are on sale all
year round, however
, their supply in the summer season could be augmented.
