Apple production in Malatya

Overview

Apple harvesting has commenced in the Doğanşehir district of Malatya. While the quality and aroma of the crop are reported to be high due to a lack of pests, producers are facing economic difficulties regarding low purchase prices and insufficient cold storage capacity.

To address these challenges and protect the local industry, the Doğanşehir Mayor announced that an application for geographical indication certification has been submitted to the Turkish Patent and Trademark Office to brand the local apple variety.
