Israel: Citrus Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Israel’s citrus planted area in MY 2016/17 was 18,910 hectares (ha), 590 ha less than the planted area in MY 2015/16. Productive area was 16,410 ha, with the remaining 2,500 ha being young orchards which have not yet reached maturity. These changes are the result of area being shifted from grapefruit towards the production of oranges and certain easy peeler varieties. Area harvested in oranges and mandarin/tangerines is expected to increase in coming years as additional young orchards come into production.
