Brazilian Tahiti Acid Lime Exporters are Still Awaiting Clearances to Export to the EU

Tahiti lime exporters in São Paulo, Brazil, which had their exports suspended due to cases of citrus canker, are anxiously awaiting the release of the authorities to resume exports to the EU, the primary destination for Brazilian lemons. Although there is verbal authorization from packing houses, this will not mean the resumption of exports yet, as farms and producing areas are still being inspected, and documentation has not been released for this level of lime production. The forecast is that the producing regions will be authorized to resume exports at the end of October.
