This report includes:
■ Two waves of April frosts: 9–13 April brought the lowest nighttime temperatures, while 29–30 April affected the largest areas during the flowering stage. Nighttime temperature maps for Ukraine, Poland, and Serbia are included.
■ Assessment of blossom losses: Based on the ERA5 reanalysis, estimated blossom losses reached approximately 19% for strawberries and 23% for raspberries. Blueberries experienced no blossom losses, although winter damage to plantations is estimated at around 10%.
■ Challenges and growers' perspectives: Survey results from berry producers show actual losses ranging from 0% to 70%, along with insights into which frost protection methods proved most effective.
■ April price anomalies: Fresh blueberry prices reached new record highs of up to UAH 1,060/kg, while the first domestic strawberries became more expensive despite the usual seasonal downward price trend.
■ Frozen berry export dynamics: Ukrainian raspberries achieved record export revenue, while frozen bilberries remained in short supply and frozen blueberry exports continued to expand on the EU market (Eurostat data through February 2026).
■ May weather outlook and international opportunities: When the risk of late frosts is expected to subside and which international trade fairs are likely to shape export contracts for the new season.
