The panel data methodology was applied. The variables considered were the different prices (CIF/kg) of pear, apple and stone fruits, their per capita consumptions, real per capita income, consumer price indexes and real exchange rates. Pear consumption responds especially to apple consumption, but also to prices of apples and peaches, real per capita income, consumer price indexes and countries’ exchange rates.

Our goal is to provide leaders in the commercial, public, and social sectors with the facts and insights on which to base management and policy decisions. MGI research combines the disciplines of economics and management, employing the analytical tools of economics with the insights of business leaders. Our “micro-to-macro” methodology examines microeconomic industry trends to better understand the broad macroeconomic forces affecting business strategy and public policy. MGI’s in-depth reports have covered more than 20 countries and 30 industries. Current research focuses on six themes: productivity and growth; natural resources; labour markets; the evolution of global financial markets; the economic impact of technology and innovation; and urbanisation. Recent reports have assessed job creation, resource productivity, cities of the future, the economic impact of the Internet, and the future of manufacturing. MGI is led by three McKinsey & Company directors: Richard Dobbs, James Manyika, and Jonathan Woetzel. Michael Chui, Susan Lund, and Jaana Remes serve as MGI partners. Project teams are led by the MGI partners and a group of senior fellows, and include consultants from McKinsey & Company’s offices around the world.

  • Fresh Apples, Grapes, and Pears: World Markets and Trade
    United States Department of Agriculture Foreign Agricultural Service June 2021 Fresh Apples, Grapes, and Pears: World Markets and Trade FRESH APPLES World production for 2020/21 is projected down 3.6 million tons to 75.9 million on a severe spring frost significantly affecting China’s northwest provinces. Trade is also forecast down on lower exportable supplies in the European Union and United States. China production is estimated lower by 1.9 million tons to 40.5 million on a severe spring frost in northern provinces that affected flowering. Although total production is down, higher volumes of lower grade fruit are expected, boosting shipments to price‐conscious Southeast Asia markets and lifting exports to 1.1 million tons. Imports are projected over 30,000 tons lower to 70,000 as COVID‐19 led to logistical disruptions, generating more cautious buying from importers. EU production is expected to rise over 500,000 tons to 12.2 million as greater supplies from an on‐year in non‐commercial orchards more than compensates for losses in weather‐affected commercial orchards. Exports are projected down 135,000 tons to 880,000 on fewer commercial supplies, while imports are also expected lower to 460,000 as reduced shipments from Eastern European suppliers more than offsets supplies from the Southern Hemisphere. Turkey production is projected to Turkey Apple Exports Trending Higher surge nearly 700,000 tons to 4.3 million despite some hail in Kayseri 300 and the largest apple production Forecast Rest of World Tons province of Isparta.

  • The Rise and Fall of Israel's Bilateral Aid Budget 1958-2008
    A mere ten years after Israel gained its independence from British mandatory rule in 1948, it launched an official development cooperation program. At a time when Israel was itself still a developing country, it began a training and technical assistance program that expanded within a few short years to include the dispatch of hundreds of Israeli technical assistants to other developing countries and the training of thousands of Africans, Asians and Latin Americans annually. Driven by both political necessity and the moral vision of Israel’s leaders, the program rapidly grew in size and scope. At its height, in the late 1960s and early 1970s, MASHAV, the government body responsible for managing the aid program, was the largest department in Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Israel had, per capita, one of the most extensive technical assistance programs in the western world. Unfortunately, this vision of cooperation, at least as far as Africa was concerned, proved to be short-lived. Within 15 years of the establishment The Rise and of Israel’s official aid program, the "golden age" of Israel's development cooperation came to an abrupt end, as all but four African countries Fall severed relations with Israel in the wake of the October 1973 Arab-Israeli War. Africa’s rejection of Israel dealt a deep blow to Israeli public and of Israel's political support for its aid program, marking a turning point from which Bilateral Aid Israel technical assistance has never recovered. The rupture of relations led to an immediate 50% drop in MASHAV’s operational budget and further Budget substantial budgetary cuts over the past 35 years.

  • Fresh Apples, Grapes, and Pears: World Markets and Trade
    United States Department of Agriculture Fresh Apples, Grapes, and Pears: Foreign Agricultural World Markets and Trade Service June 2019 FRESH APPLES World production for 2018/19 is projected to plunge 5.7 million metric tons (tons) from the previous year to 68.7 million, its lowest level in 8 years, as China sustained substantial losses from damaging weather that more than offsets gains in the European Union (EU). Reduced output is expected to force exports lower by nearly half a million tons to 5.7 million, while diminished export-quality supplies depress consumption and bump up processing. China’s production is estimated to tumble to its lowest level in 9 years, dropping 25 percent to 31.0 million tons as April frost and heavy rain and hail in May caused significant crop damage in major producing provinces. With lower supplies, exports are also expected to plunge, falling nearly one-third to 880,000 tons. Imports are projected up 12,000 tons to 75,000 as greater shipments from New Zealand and the European Union more than offset lower supplies from the United States. The United States currently remains China’s top Northern Hemisphere supplier though it continues to face a 50-percent retaliatory tariff. EU production is expected to rebound from last year’s frost, surging 40 percent to 14.0 million tons as a mild winter leads to increases in harvested area and also improves yield. A significant jump in shipments to Egypt and India, spurred by higher supplies, is expected to help drive exports up nearly 500,000 tons to 1.2 million while imports are set to contract to 470,000 tons on lower import demand.
