Seasonality
The full 12-month calendar
Sub-varieties are shown as their own rows wherever their window differs from the parent category. Where a window is narrow or thinly sourced, the row says so instead of overstating it. Frozen fruit is marked year-round because IQF product is not tied to harvest.
Widest berry window. Long production run supported by a favourable climate, with export peaks in autumn and again in spring rather than one continuous peak.
Season opens October or November
Season starts September or October
Season starts February or March
Narrow window with a thinner sourcing base than other categories.
Early harvest in southern zones such as Skoura and Marrakech, full national peak in June, tapering through July in later-harvest areas. Canino is the named export variety.
Season starts August or September
Harvest peak window
Available year-round. This is how most export volume actually moves.
Year-round availability from cold storage.
Not seasonal. Available year-round regardless of fresh harvest windows.
Derivatives (flour, gum, powder, syrup) remain available beyond this window through processing and storage.
Sub-variety windows
Lemon runs April to July while orange runs November to July, and green-skin avocado opens ahead of Hass. Programme planning should use the sub-rows, not the category headline.
Fresh versus stored
Dates and apples both have a defined harvest and a separate stored-product window. Most date export volume moves as stored product, available year-round.
Where data is thin
Table grape runs a narrow, thinly sourced June to July window. We flag that rather than filling it in.
Carob derivatives
Carob pods harvest in a narrow August to September window, but flour, gum, powder and syrup stay available beyond it through processing and storage, in the same way stored dates run past their harvest.
Apricot and raspberry windows
Apricot season starts earliest in the south (Skoura, Marrakech region) before the national peak in June. Raspberry harvest runs longer than most categories, with export volumes concentrated in autumn and spring rather than a single peak month.
