South Africa: Citrus Semi-annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

South Africa`s production of grapefruit, oranges and lemons/limes is estimated to increase in the 2017/18 MY, based on the growth in area planted and on the normal weather conditions in the main growing regions of Limpopo, Eastern Cape and Mpumalanga. The drought conditions in the Western Cape are expected to result in a decrease in the production of tangerines/mandarins. However, duty free exports of tangerines/mandarins to the United States under the African Growth Opportunity Act (AGOA) are expected to continue their strong annual growth.
