Who Or What is "Citrus World"?
« on: September 25, 2014, 01:00:59 PM »
1st,  Citrus World Inc. is a Citrus Cooperative, based in Lake Wales, Florida.

2nd. Steve Caruso is Citrus World's CEO

3rd.  Citrus World has a division called Florida’s Natural Growers which was first formed in 1933. Florida’s Natural Growers is a cooperative of fourteen different citrus grower organizations representing nearly 1,000 individual citrus growers owning almost 60,000 acres of citrus in Florida. Its flagship brand, Florida’s Natural® Brand Pure Orange Juice, (not from concentrate) is sold throughout the US and in more than 40 countries throughout the world.

4th What did Citrus World Just do?   Citrus World give its growers up to $10,000,000 dollars, to replant new citrus trees replacing their dying HLB- greening trees. This should help overcome the cost, and the rather high monetary risk of replanting citrus trees in Florida. It demonstrates Citrus World’s belief in the long term sustainability of the Florida citrus grower and will help enable the Florida’s Natural Brand to continue to grow.

Sorry, I don't understand, replant? What for?
If the HLB still there, the new trees will die in few years. Unfortunately, It would be a waste of money.
Maybe I am wrong.

But it would prolong the citrus industry as they search/develop a treatment for HLB
