Summary in the original language of the document
While organic citrus fruit production may not reach the levels seen in other organic
sectors, such as olives, coffee, or cocoa, there has been significant growth in the number of hectares dedicated to organic citrus production over the past 20 years. Between 2004 and 2022, the organic citrus acreage expanded by more than 86´000 hectares.
In 2022, over 115´000 hectares of citrus fruits were grown organically worldwide, constituting 1.1 percent of the world's total citrus area of 10.6 million hectares(according to FAOSTAT).
This article outlines the current status of organic citrsus frui world-wide including present challenges, such as for instance the citrus greening disease.
