2008 was a year to forget for the papaya industry in the United States. Imports have fallen by 10% compared to volumes in 2007, from 138,000 to 124,000 mt (excluding shipments from Hawaii).
In 2008, monthly shipments averaged 10,000 mt, with a typical peak between April and May. Mexico and Belize occupy together 90% of the imported papaya market.
