    .
    In 2020, Tasmania opened a new fast air service , which can fly direct flights from the capital Hobart to Hong Kong, Japan , China and other regions, alleviating farmers' concerns that cherries may fall into transport delays and lead to deterioration
    .
     
    Compared with Chile and Turkey, the output of Australian cherries is not high, and only 50% is exported, half of which comes from Tasmania
    .
     
    Peter Cornish, CEO of the Tasmania Fruit Growers Association, said, “Cherry is the second largest export crop in Tasmania.
    Tasmanian cherries performed so well during the pandemic, thanks to local operators.
    Years of hard work
    .
    Our growers continue to increase investment, hire more employees, expand orchards, improve the rating and sorting system, and continue to improve packaging, which ultimately promotes the increase in production
    .
    In terms of worker shortages, epidemic prevention and control, and Given the multiple challenges of limited air transportation, the 40% growth is a great improvement for the aviation industry and the Tasmanian agricultural sector
    .
    "
     
    "Our top three overseas markets have achieved very strong growth, an increase of more than 50%
    .
    Local growers pursue higher quality.
    The air and soil conditions here are the world's top, and the growth cycle of fruits is longer, so Our cherries will be so popular
    .
    " Peter Cornish said, "In addition, I also want to thank the transportation industry and our freight forwarders.
    Their role cannot be ignored.
    For example, Cathay Pacific’s new service has greatly promoted exports to Hong Kong
    .
    "
     
      Finally, Cornish said: "The price of cherries has dropped by 17%, but the total export volume and total export value continue to grow
    .
    In the long run, the average annual compound growth rate is 15%, which is quite satisfactory
    .
    Our sales to more than 20 countries worldwide Countries and regions have exported more than 2,400 tons of cherries, which has promoted the employment situation and the development of various industries in Tasmania
    .
    "
     
      The Tasmanian cherry production season lasts from mid-to-late December to February of the following year.
    The peak of production and harvest is in mid-to-late January.
    Due to protection from fruit flies and other pests, the export of Tasmanian cherries is strong, in Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, etc.
    Markets with strict import standards are favored
    .
    It is understood that the export work in the 2020/21 season has received dual support from the state government and the federal government.
    For example, the International Freight Assistance Mechanism (IFAM) project has alleviated the shortage of labor and logistics and transportation difficulties; Australian Minister of Trade, Tourism and Investment Simon · Simon Birmingham said that the 110 million Australian dollar international freight assistance mechanism introduced by the government has brought vitality to South Australia’s agriculture and seafood farming industry, and has helped South Australia’s agricultural products export and maintain the normal operation of agriculture and fisheries in difficult times.
