Harvest through the late summer and early autumn in the Jordan Valley and the Arava, with the heaviest shipping from September into the new year. The fruit is held chilled or frozen after that, so what the band below shows is when volume moves rather than when it exists.

The demand side is what makes this window unlike anything else in this section. Ramadan accounts for a large share of world date consumption and it moves about eleven days earlier each year, so the weeks the trade wants the fruit walk backwards through the calendar. Planning off last season’s dates puts a programme a fortnight late before a booking is made.
