摘要

This study aims to analyse price dynamics and export competitiveness in Türkiye and other major grapefruit-producing countries. Data were obtained from TURKSTAT, FAOSTAT, and ITC-TRADEMAP. A significant share of global grapefruit production is subject to international trade. In Türkiye, grapefruit prices display considerable volatility in the long run, generating uncertainty and income risks for producers. According to the Balassa (RCA), Vollrath (RXA), and Laursen (RSCA) indices, Türkiye’s export competitiveness fluctuates periodically. The competitiveness of grapefruit exports is predominantly concentrated in a limited number of countries; however, Asian nations have recently become increasingly influential in this sector. Diversification of production and export regions, expansion toward new target markets, and strengthening of logistics infrastructure have been identified as strategic priorities for Türkiye.
