Tridge summary

The USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service report predicts a slight increase in global citrus production, except for a 3% decrease in orange juice output due to reduced orange production in Brazil. China's orange production is expected to reach a record high, and mandarin/tangerine production is set to rise due to increased output in China and Turkey. However, EU's production is expected to decrease due to poor weather conditions. In Brazil, orange juice production is estimated to fall due to drought, extreme heat, and citrus greening disease. Despite these challenges, global grapefruit and lemon/lime production is expected to see a slight increase, with higher output in China and Turkey compensating for declines in other regions.
