Thin cumulative trade book

Kiwi fruit in the thin-trade third

$42.7B cumulative 2018–2023 trade puts Kiwi fruit in the lightest third of FAO commodities here (#84 of 100).

Cumulative 2018–2023 trade in Kiwi fruit is $42.7B - a thin-third book; year-to-year swings are noisier, so pair totals with the exporter/importer tables. Even at thin scale, New Zealand still tops exports and China; mainland tops imports. Related US lines typically classify under HTS Chapter 08; duty rates still depend on the exact subheading.
