For MY 2013/14, EU-28 citrus production is projected to increase in almost all the producing countries to reach nearly 11 MMT which is an increase of 9 percent compared to the last campaign. This estimation is due to favorable weather conditions and the projected growth in European orange, lemon and grapefruit production of 12, 15 and 17 percent respectively.
