Peru: Citrus Semi-Annual
Link to report:
Peru’s mandarin/tangerine production and exports are expected to recover and increase by two and three percent, respectively, in MY 2023/2024 (March 2024 to February 2025). Production is forecast to reach 560,000 metric tons (MT), while exports are forecast to recover to 210,000 MT. Higher productivity driven by recent cooler weather and potentially favorable dryer weather conditions are expected to positively impact production and exports. Domestic consumption of fresh mandarins/tangerines is forecast at 322,000 in MY 2023/2024, a three percent increase from the previous year. The United States will likely remain Peru’s top export partner, accounting for 50 percent of exports.
