Harvey, David (2017) Is China to blame for the global avocado shortage? The Conversation. ISSN 2044-5032

Harvests from major producers in Mexico, Peru and California, have been poor, which has reduced supply. Meanwhile, demand has surged. And not just in the affluent West, Chinese consumers are developing an insatiable taste for them too.
