Abstract: Currently, the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) includes five countries: Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Russia. The deepening of cooperation between these states began to be carried out especially intensively over the past decade, including in connection with the complication of the geopolitical situation in the world, as well as the ambiguous situation with economic integration within the framework of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Through interstate agreements, a single customs territory and economic space were formed, a number of supranational regulatory bodies function, and a coordinated economic policy is being pursued. Russia has the largest size of the consumer market, both in terms of population and income among the countries participating in the EAEU. It is also one of the world's largest importers of fruits, berries and nuts. In 2020, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) officially announced that 2021 will be the International Year of Fruit and Vegetables. Taking into account the crucial importance of fruit and berry products in the diet of a modern person, based on the use of data from national statistical bodies, trends in a number of indicators of the balance of resources and the use of fruits and berries in the Russian Federation, the Republic of Belarus and the Republic of Kazakhstan for 2011-2019 were considered.
