Florida Problem Continues
« on: October 27, 2014, 04:28:09 PM »
Primarily due to the citrus greening disease, Florida orange production has nosedived from 242 million boxes of citrus in 2003-04 to a projected 108 million boxes this season. But grove care taking costs over that span have more than doubled to more than $2,000 per acre, also mostly because of greening. - Millet
