The 2024/2025 orange crop presents significant challenges due to climatic factors and diseases but also opens doors for innovation and growth. To face this reality, the industry needs to focus on sustainable practices and research, always seeking a more promising future.

Overcoming Crop Challenges

Based on the report published last month by Fundecitrus, this season’s production is estimated at 232.38 million boxes, marking one of the lowest productions in decades. 

Although this scenario presents obstacles, implementing advanced research and sustainable practices is essential to facing these challenging times.

Innovation for a Sustainable Future

Precision agriculture technologies and the development of disease-resistant orange varieties are innovations that help tackle current challenges and promote more productive and sustainable agriculture. Citrosuco’s commitment to its management practices and biological controls has been essential in sustaining production and ensuring the company’s sustainable growth.

To enhance climate resilience, we also concentrate our efforts on practices that increase biodiversity, such as planting native trees, contributing significantly to carbon capture, and benefiting both the environment and agricultural productivity.

As a result of years of research, projects, and investments, proficient management of citrus farming can substantially increase carbon stock in orchards, helping to mitigate climate change and promoting a positive cycle for farmers and the planet. 

This underscores the essential role of citrus farming in sustainable management and fostering a healthier environment.
