Peru: Citrus Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)   |   PE2023-0024
FAS Lima forecasts Peruvian mandarin/tangerine production at 545,000 metric tons (MT) for marketing year (MY) 2023/24 (March 2024 to February 2025), a decrease of one percent compared to the previous year. Lower yields driven by above average temperatures and other potential adverse weather conditions will negatively impact production and exports. Domestic consumption of fresh mandarins/tangerines is forecast at 318,000 in MY 2023/2024, a two percent decrease from the previous year. Peruvian mandarin/tangerine exports are forecast to remain at 200,000 MT. The United States will likely remain Peru’s top export partner.
