Drought in the lemon-producing region continues to affect Brazilian exporters

The drought in the largest Tahiti lemon-producing region in Brazil continues to suffer from drought, which impacts the quality and quantity of the fruits sought. Prices are trending upwards, due to the easing of measures against covid in Europe and the arrival of summer on the continent. Another important player in the Tahiti acid lime market, which is Mexico, is expected to start harvesting the new crop soon, which could further affect the competitiveness of Brazilian lemon.
