Tunisia: Record Citrus Crop Highlights Market Constraints
Following record production in 2016/17, Tunisia citrus faces lingering constraints to capture value added processing and export markets. France remains the largest export market for Tunisia citrus; however, efforts are being undertaken to reorient exports to the Gulf, Algeria and Russia. Citrus production is composed of (in rank order) Maltese oranges, navel oranges, clementines, lemons and mandarins.
