Rainy weather results in bigger Turkish figs

Core Tip: The relatively short fig-season is in full swing.
 The relatively short fig-season is in full swing. Sinerji is a Turkish company that due to its location in the Northwest had perfect weather for their figs. Although Turkey had problems with floods in some parts and drought in others, the figs were blessed with gentle rains, which resulted in bigger figs with better taste compared to last year.

The Black Bursa Figs are already being exported to several European countries like Austria, Germany, France, Belgium, The Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark alongside Russia and UAE. Kenan Aslan, manager of Sinerji says the fig-season could be over in a blink: “The season started just a few days ago, on August the 7th, where we loaded six truckloads filled with figs. Normally the season would last until the beginning of October. However, due to the warm weather, this season will be shorter than past years. We expect the season to run at full capacity until mid-September. From that point the sizes will get smaller, but the figs will be available until mid-October.”

As the season started, the prices were about the same as last year. Aslan states that prices for figs change heavily on a daily basis, all correlating with the current demand for the figs. “Although figs are a niche market, we have days with lots of interest for the Turkish Black Bursa figs from both importers and supermarkets.”
