Morocco: Citrus Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   MO2024-0017
Post expects Morocco’s Tangerine/mandarin production for MY 2024/25 to reach an estimated 1.1 million metric tons, increasing 16 percent over MY 2023/24, orange production should increase by 17 percent over the previous year to 960,000 MT, while lemon/lime production will reach 45,000 MT. Much of the increase in production is due to improved weather conditions during the flowering period compared to the previous season coupled with an increased adoption of drip irrigation techniques. Post estimates Morocco’s MY 2024/25 tangerine/mandarin exports to reach 500,000 MT, increasing 27 percent higher than MY 2023/24 due to increased supplies while orange exports should increase by 17 percent to reach 90,000 MT and lemon/lime exports at 7,000 MT.
