News References ................................................................................................................................ 39 ii FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLE MIDDLE EAST 1. Market Dynamics 1.1. United Arab Emirates Fruit and vegetable sales are currently strong in UAE markets and prices are generally reasonable. Sellers report that during Ramadan customers are primarily concerned about quality over price and are shopping accordingly. Observers have noted that avocado and mangoes that appear to have been damaged due to the hot weather have been sold off at less than half price or discarded. There’s strong demand for mango, which is currently a big seller. Most are from India with a few from Thailand and Pakistan. Three Indian varieties available in the wholesale market are Alphosno, Badam and Rajapuri, although the first two are most popular. Prices are considered to be reasonable. Dried mango is not available in wholesale market but can be found at some Iranian sweet shops both wholesale and retail and there is good demand for it. Fresh green chilies are mainly from India, Jordan, with a few from UAE. It is early for chillies, which will be in season in two months and there is limited supply. Dried chilies are available in wholesale market and prices are high. Avocado is coming from the USA, Spain and Kenya. There are greatest volumes of Kenyan avocado, which is also the cheapest and attracts strong demand. Relatively few come from the USA and Spain and they are expensive. Other current strong sellers are lemons, fresh leaves, tomatoes, capsicum, chillies, carrots, lettuce, oranges, grapefruit and watermelon. Strawberry, pineapple, banana, garlic, cucumber, zucchini, bitter melon, pumpkin, beans, drumstick, awla and pomelo are also in season. 1.2. Oman Trade in the Oman market is strong with Ramadan boosting sales but also increasing prices. However, customers seem happy to pay what is required and stock levels are high. Most vegetables are now out of season. Dried chillies and dried mango are not available in the market. Fruits, including grapefruits watermelon, orange, dates, mango and lemons, and vegetables such as carrot, cucumber and lettuce are strong sellers. There is plentiful supply of mangoes and oranges however; chillies are now in very short supply and coming only from India. Avocado is only from Kenya and is popular with Arab buyers. Strawberry, pineapple, banana, lemon, garlic, cucumber, bitter melon, pumpkin, beans, drumstick, awla are also in season. 1.3. Qatar The Qatar market sales situation is particularly good, due in a large part to the extra demand created by Ramadan. Chillies are in short supply as they’re not currently in season. Those available are from India and Jordan and prices are reasonable. However, the mango season is now underway with strong supply from India and Pakistan and high customer demand. FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLE MIDDLE EAST Avocado also has very good supply and strong demand. Avocado is imported from Kenya and America, although the Kenyan avocado is noticeably cheaper. Dried Mango and dried chilies are not available in this market. Cantaloupe, orange, pineapple, tomato, banana, apple, cucumber, lettuce, carrot, potato, are other best sellers. 1.4. Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Prices in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia market have risen as Ramadan begins and are expected to continue to increase until the end of Ramadan on July 18 Mango is only available from India and Pakistan and is very expensive. Only local fresh chillies are available and its price continues to rise. Red chillies remain more expensive than the green ones. Meanwhile, avocado from Kenya has maintained a price similar to last month although relatively few are available in the market. While vegetables in general are expensive, tomatoes are particularly costly although there is supply from Jordon, Egypt and KSA. There is still no fruit or vegetables from Syria and little produce from Spain. Lemons are only from Egypt and Turkey and oranges are costly and in short supply, coming only from Egypt. Sweet peppers are available only from Jordan with none of the previous supply from Egypt. 1.5. Bahrain Prices of fruit and vegetables in the Bahrain market are increasing due to consumers bulk buying or Ramadan, which began on June 18 and lasts for a month. Price increases began a few days before Ramadan and usually peak in the first week, although are likely to remain high throughout the rest of the month. Chillies are being supplied from India, Jordan, KSA and Thailand, while currently only Alphonso mangoes from India are available in the market and avocado is only from the USA. The price of banana rises as well during this month. There are fewer varieties of oranges available as the heat soars and those available are from South Africa and are expensive. Watermelons have not been affected by price increases, as the supply from Jordan is more than adequate. While prices have increased, it seems importers and sellers are prepared for the added demand of Ramadan and to date there is no shortage of supply. 2. Media (*Where articles reference the Middle East in general or more than one ME country reported on, results are posted under UAE) 2.1. United Arab Emirates * Multiple reports of inclement weather significantly damaging mango crops in India and Pakistan and impacting on supply and prices * Nevertheless, UAE retailers and consumers enthusiastically welcome mango season with festivals promoting a record number of varieties of the fruit 2 FRESH FRUITS AND VEGETABLE MIDDLE EAST * A Pakistani government ban on the use of wood packaging including crates, boxes and cases for storing fruits and vegetables from May 20 could further affect supply to the UAE and GCC. * Food security remains an ongoing discussion with UAE meeting with numerous other countries to discuss trade ties and agricultural opportunities * Ramadan sparks debate over pricing and excessive consumption. Inclement weather in Uttar Pradesh has destroyed the mango crop to such an extent that the overall mango output is expected to fall by almost 50 per cent. UAE alone accounted for over 60 per cent of India’s total mango exports followed by UK (16 per cent), Saudi Arabia (four per cent), Kuwait (three per cent) and Qatar (two per cent). According to a study conducted by Assocham, mango production will be almost half of the 43 lakh tonne mangoes that are annually produced in the state. Chausa, dashehari, fazli, gulab khas, langra, mallika and amrapali are the well known varieties of mangoes produced in Uttar Pradesh. Mr D.S. Rawat, national secretary general of Assocham, said “prices are likely to swell by as much as 50 per cent and might even go up to 65 per cent in some pockets”.

  • Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast
    CBI Ministry of Foreign Affairs Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast Commissioned by The Centre for the Promotion of Imports from developing countries (CBI) Agri-Logic August 2019 Value Chain Analysis for Processed Fruits from Burkina Faso, Mali and Ivory Coast Value Chain Analysis for CBI Final edited version 12 August 2019 Prepared by: Herma Mulder Sanne Steemers Jean Bosco Dibouloni Jacques Tamini Mohamed Ali Niang 1 Executive summary Background and scope This value chain analysis was commissioned by CBI (Centre for the Promotion of Imports from developing countries) in order to identify the most promising product market combinations for processed fruit from Burkina Faso, Côte d’Ivoire and Mali. Export market competitiveness While tropical dried fruits and tropical frozen fruits are still relatively small compared to the total processed fruit market size, we see that tropical fruits are gaining market share from native European fruits. Preserved fruits (mainly canned pineapple), fruit juices, concentrates (for juices) and coconut oil are larger markets, but they are stable or in some cases declining. Purées for the baby food segment and coconut derivatives other than coconut oil are interesting growth segments when the high quality and food safety standards required are achieved. For all processed fruits market segments, the same countries appear as trade hubs for the European market: The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Germany, France, Belgium and Italy. Market trends provide opportunities and threats for the development of a processed fruits segment. Consumer demands for healthy and sustainable products are increasing. The shift in consumer dietary patterns and the growing vegan population is expected to drive the growth of the processed fruit market.

  • Relative Clause Constructions in Turkish Sign Language Dissertation
    Relative Clause Constructions in Turkish Sign Language Dissertation zur Erlangung des Grades des Doktors der Philosophie Fachbereiche Sprache, Literatur, Medien I & II der Universität Hamburg vorgelegt von OKAN KUBUS aus Ankara Hamburg, Juni 2016 Hauptgutachter: Prof. Dr. Christian Rathmann Zweitgutachterin: Prof. Dr. Annette Hohenberger Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 30.01.2015 Angenommen von der Fakultät für Geisteswissenschaften der Universität Hamburg am 11.03.2015 Veröffentlicht mit Genehmigung der Fakultät für Geisteswissenschaften der Universität Hamburg am 23.05.2016 ii Türk Sağır topluluğuna To the Turkish Deaf community iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the relative clause constructions (RCCs) in Turkish Sign Language (TİD). TİD, a recognized natural language, has rich, distinctive linguistic properties, as do other sign and spoken languages. For the analysis of various relativization strategies and discourse functions of RCCs in TİD, the collected data is based on TİD monologues in a small corpus (consisting of approximately three film hours), which has been annotated with special attention to RCC types in various discourse modes (narrative, information, report and description), with a high incidence of narrative passages. The distributions of head noun position, the positions of relative and matrix clauses, the accompanying nonmanual elements, and the relative elements indicated three strategies: (i) head noun exhibited within the scope of nonmanual, (ii) distinctive nonmanual scopes of head noun and modifying clause, and (iii) non-overt head nouns (free RCs). The data reveal that restrictive RCCs strongly favor circumnominal-like constructions, which are generally accompanied by squint, whereas nonrestrictive RCCs in TİD use a variety of strategies. Even though the way that relative clauses in TİD are marked also show a great distribution, the two strategies that were observed the most frequently are (i) no overt relative marker and (ii) clause-final IX (nominalizer).

  • Changes in the Sensory Characteristics of Mango Cultivars During the Production of Mango Purée and Sorbet
    DIFFERENCES IN SENSORY CHARACTERISTICS AMONG VARIOUS MANGO CULTIVARS IN THE FORM OF FRESH SLICED MANGO, MANGO PURÉE, AND MANGO SORBET by CHRISTIE N. LEDEKER B.S., University of Delaware, 2008 A THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF SCIENCE Interdisciplinary Food Science Graduate Program Department of Human Nutrition KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2011 Approved by: Major Professor Dr. Delores H. Chambers Abstract Fresh mangoes are highly perishable, and therefore, they are often processed to extend shelf-life and facilitate exportation. Studying the transformation that mango cultivars undergo throughout processing can aid in selecting appropriate varieties for products. In the 1st part of this study, the flavor and texture properties of 4 mango cultivars available in the United States (U.S.) were analyzed. Highly trained descriptive panelists in the U.S. evaluated fresh, purée, and sorbet samples prepared from each cultivar. Purées were made by pulverizing mango flesh, passing it through a china cap, and heating it to 85 °C for 15 s. For the sorbets, purées were diluted with water (1:1), sucrose was added, and the bases were frozen in a batch ice cream freezer. Much of the texture variation among cultivars was lost after fresh samples were transformed into purées, whereas much of the flavor and texture variation among cultivars was lost once fresh mangoes and mango purées were transformed into sorbets. Compared to the other cultivars, Haden and Tommy Atkins underwent greater transformations in flavor throughout sorbet preparation, and processing reduced the intensities of some unpleasant flavors in these cultivars.
