Czech hop production back to normal after two low years
The 2008 hop harvest in the Czech Republic is approaching its end. Saaz variety is now completely harvested. Although the final official results of the harvest will not be available until the end of November we estimate that due to the good climatic conditions, especially compare to the last two years, the crop results will be around long term average. Thanks to good results in the smaller production areas (Tirschitz and Auscha) we can eve talk about a better average. The average yields of the main SAAZ hop variety in the main hop growing region are up just above 1t/ha and also the average alpha content is better than in the last two years.

Czech hop report - Current situation in the Czech hop growing sector |

Dear trading partners,
During the spring and summer of this year as well as the autumn of last year there appeared numerous evaluations of the situation of Czech hop growing from the side of some of the world hop trading companies. We would like to point out that some of these evaluations and outlooks are very generalising, in many cases inaccurate and misleading. It is possible that the goal of this information is to lower the potential and the value of the Czech hop growing in the eyes of the customers of Czech hop industry and gain a competitive advantage for the future.

Czech hop acreage in 2008 - 5345 ha
According to the report of Central Institute for Supervising and Testing in Agriculture, department for hops, the total acreage of hops in the Czech Republic is 5345 ha for the year 2008, which is only a very slight change from the last year acreage of 5389 ha. The major variety is still SAAZ fine aroma hops with 88,8 % of the total acreage.
Compare to the previous year there was an increase of the variety Premiant and variety Sladek and unfortunately again a slight decrease of the Saaz variety, mainly in the Saaz and Auscha hop growing regions. The positive news is that compare to the previous years there was more new plantings of the Saaz variety and we foresee that this trend will continue. There was even an increase of the acreage of the Saaz variety in the Tirschitz hop growing region.
