Orange price remains stable and Tahiti variety appreciates again

The citrus market continues to see stable demand this week, despite the beginning of the month period, when sales normally improve. Thus, orange prices registered little change: according to data from Cepea, in the partial week (from Monday to Thursday), the pear variety has an average of R$ 44,05/box of 40,8 kg, in tree, a slight drop of 0,2% compared to the previous period.

As for the Tahiti lime, after two consecutive weeks of decline, the fruit rose in value this week. Even though supply remains high and prices remain at low levels, the harvest is beginning to show signs of slowing down. In this week's partial, the variety has an average of R$ 15,60/box of 27 kg, harvested, an increase of 1,7% in the same comparison.
