May 6, Pozirk. Belarus accounted for 31 percent of Poland’s apple exports outside the European Union last month, as sales soared to 8,841 tons after 1,500 tons reported in March, Polish Sad24 reports.
Belarus was the main buyer of Polish apples outside the EU, ranking ahead of Kazakhstan (7,691 tons), Egypt (2,235 tons), India (1,354 tons) and Mongolia (1,162 tons).
