Andalusia’s avocado production rose nearly 45% by volume and 35.5% by value in the 2025–2026 season, from October to June, compared with the previous season. Data held by the regional Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Development indicate that about 91,300 tonnes were harvested, worth more than €202 million. Compared with the average of the past five seasons, production was nearly 22% higher by volume and almost 12% higher by value.
The increase was linked to greater water availability following rainfall during the latest season, in contrast with the drought of previous years. The additional water allowed the crop to go through its growing and production cycle more normally, recovering its potential and improving yields.
Andalusia accounts for 64% of Spain’s avocado production. Within the region, Málaga produced the most in 2025–2026, with 47,400 tonnes, or 52% of the total. Granada followed with 24,400 tonnes (27%), Cádiz with 13,300 tonnes (15%) and Huelva with 5,760 tonnes (6%).
About 13,900 hectares were in production in Andalusia during the season, nearly 5% more than in 2024–2025. The total area under cultivation was 15,800 hectares in 2025–2026.
Andalusian avocado exports also increased in the latest season, reaching 107,300 tonnes, up 18.3% from the previous season, and valued at €396.6 million, up 35.5%. France was the leading destination, accounting for 45% of sales from Andalusia, at about 48,350 tonnes. The Netherlands followed with more than 27,800 tonnes (26% of the total volume), and Germany with nearly 15,650 tonnes (12%).
