Canberra. Although Australia's almond exports decreased slightly in November 2025 compared to November 2024, the performance is still considered quite encouraging. In fact, almond exports from Australia reached a new record high during 2024.

In November 2025, the supply of almonds to the Australian domestic market decreased significantly. Compared to 2024, the November 2025 supply of almonds fell by 29 percent to 1,843 tonnes, the lowest monthly supply in the last 14 years.

Similarly, monthly almond exports also fell by 5.4 percent to 12,627 tonnes. However, this quantity was significantly higher than the November exports in the years prior to 2024, when almond exports reached their peak in November 2024.

According to available data, a total of 12,627 tonnes of almonds were exported from Australia in November 2025, with China alone receiving 8,555 tonnes. In addition, Vietnam received 1,670 tonnes, Spain 411 tonnes, Turkey 792 tonnes, India 495 tonnes, and Germany 206 tonnes.

Compared to November 2024, almond exports from Australia to China, Vietnam, and Spain increased in November 2025, but shipments to Turkey, India, and Germany decreased. Australian almond imports to India decreased by 10 percent.

During the current marketing season, a total of 135,198 tonnes of almonds were supplied to the Australian domestic and export markets, which is 6.4 percent less than the same period of the previous season.

By November 2025, the domestic and export trade of almonds had reached the second highest level ever recorded. Following a bumper crop in the 2024-25 season, almond exports reached new record levels, while a decrease in production in the 2025-26 season is leading to a slight decline in exports.
