Demand for Health-Based Food and Functional Food Products with Fresh Fig Ingredients has Increased

The climate is fluctuating across the globe, which has a paramount impact on agricultural output. The regional climate in Mediterranean countries is also fluctuating to a great extent. As fresh figs grow only once a year in a particular season, any adverse climatic conditions could negatively affect the cultivation of this fruit, and can also affect its quality. Also, fresh figs are prone to diseases, and thus, the effect of climate on the production of fresh figs is a major factor that affects supply.

Organically Produced Fresh Figs Remain Most Sought-after; European and North American Markets Prove Lucrative

Organic food products are showing tremendous growth in the global market. The same growth pattern is being observed for fresh figs. The demand for organic fresh figs in North America and Europe is very high, and thus, the farmers of fresh figs in various countries, including Turkey, the U.S., and Greece, are growing figs organically, tapping into the current market trend for organic products.

This eliminates the organic property of the figs.
