Book Description
Excerpt from Fruit Situation, Vol. 190: February 1974 A million ton citrus cr0p is likely this year, moderately below last season's record crop. Most of the decline is expected to take place in Florida, especially in the production of oranges. Relatively large supplies of most processed citrus products are on hand to meet the apparently increasing demand. Non-citrus output in 1973 was more than a fourth larger than the short crop of 1972, accounting for the larger supplies of most fresh, frozen, and dried non citrus products during the 197 3/ 74 marketing season. However, canned non-citrus items remain in short supply. During the remainder of the marketing season, prices of most fruits at all levels are expected to remain higher than a year ago. Grower prices continue to increase. January's index of prices received by farmers for fruit at 130 was 10 percent above a year ago, and 7 percent higher' than in December 1973, reflecting strong domestic and foreign demand for fresh and processed fruit, and the reduced supplies of canned non-citrus products. Average retail prices for most fruit are expected to advance at least until the 1974 season begins. In addition to strong product demand, the higher prices to consumers will reflect higher raw product costs paid by processors this season, and increased processing and marketing costs. The Nation's orange cr0p is currently forecast at million boxes million tons), 8 percent below the crop, but 8 percent above 2 years ago and the second largest on record. An estimated 157 million boxes will come from Florida, 7 percent below last season's record output. California's orange output at 38 million boxes is 10 percent below last year's level. Due to a one fourth smaller Valencia cr0p. While Navel production is expected to increase 12 percent. Texas and Arizona expect smaller supplies. On-tree grower returns for us. Oranges in January were moderately higher than a year ago, and will remain relatively high in view of the smaller crop and continued strong demand for frozen orange juice concentrate and chilled juice.
