Low domestic supply keeps citrus growing in value

The lower domestic availability of Tahiti acid lime and the high volume of the fruit exported this month (and at higher prices) continue to boost the variety's values ​​on the domestic market. However, according to Cepea researchers, demand in São Paulo fell, mainly due to the colder climate in the state.

In this week's partial, Tahiti is traded at an average of R$ 22,90/box of 27 kg, harvested, an increase of 19% compared to last week.

As for pear oranges, the average for this week's partial is R$31,60/box of 40,8 kg, on the tree, a drop of 1,4% compared to the previous period.
