ACKNOWLEDGMENT

  The acreage, production, utilization, monthly and season average price, and crop value statistics for Florida as shown in this summary and corresponding data for other citrus states are official estimates of the USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service. Chilled and frozen pack statistics were compiled by the Florida Citrus Processors Association. Where data are from other sources, appropriate references appear.

  Records of the Division of Fruit and Vegetables, Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, were used in preparing production and utilization estimates. The Citrus Administrative Committee assisted in assembling these data.

  Many producers, shippers, processors, sales agencies, transportation firms, and others associated with the citrus industry voluntarily supplied basic data used to develop these statistics. Their contributions are sincerely appreciated.

  This report was assembled under the direction of Jeffrey K. Geuder, Robert R. Terry, Candice T. Erick, and Rhonda L. Johnson of the Florida Agricultural Statistics Service.

Tree Census

  The Florida Agricultural Statistics Service first indexed the State's commercial citrus groves on aerial photography as of January 1966. Ground crews identify all the State's groves by fruit type, row spacing, and year in which set. Photo interpreters in the Orlando office then delineate the groves by variety blocks on photo transparencies at a scale of 1 inch to 660 feet. Variety blocks are measured with planimeters to obtain acreage and then indexed by land section.

  The design of the inventory survey allows for quick and economical updating. Since 1966, the citrus belt has been resurveyed each second winter to determine changes. Photographing begins in November when weather conditions are most favorable and is generally completed in 80 to 90 days. The same three-mile-wide flight lines established in 1966 are photographed on each succeeding flight. Approximately 14,000 square miles of photography are obtained at a 1 to 30,000 scale.

  The last statewide survey was conducted as of January 2002. New plantings decreased and gross loss was higher, resulting in a net loss of 34,972 acres since January 2000. Decreases in acreage and tree numbers were noted for grapefruit and specialty citrus. Acreage and tree numbers continue to climb for Valencia and other midseason oranges. Citrus acreage decreased in all production areas. Photographing will begin in November 2003 for the next survey. Field work will update acreage records as of January 2004.

County Production

  Estimates of citrus production by counties were prepared using objective survey data obtained from the citrus crop estimates program. Production for Florida has been distributed to counties based on the biennial citrus tree census, limb count survey data adjusted for droppage to end of season, and size data at maturity.

  Tree numbers by county which are used in the estimates were obtained from the latest tree census. Productivity per tree is obtained from several objective fruit surveys including limb count, size, and droppage. Because of the statistical sampling design, counties with higher production in general have a greater number of samples and, therefore, estimates for these counties can be considered more reliable. Thus, for the same reason, estimates for the production areas are more reliable than for the individual counties.

2001-02 Season Highlights


Production

  U. S. citrus production increased 1 percent from 2000-01 but is 5 percent below 1999-00. Only Florida, which produced 78 percent of the total, recorded a gain. California produced 19 percent, and Texas and Arizona contributed the remaining 3 percent. U. S. bearing acreage declined about 3 percent.

   Florida's total production of 287 million boxes is up 3 percent. With the early-mid-Navel orange crop equal to the previous season and the Valencia crop up 7 percent, all oranges are up 3 percent. Processing utilized 96 percent of the crop. All grapefruit production is up 1.5 percent with small gains in the white and colored categories. Temples rebounded 24 percent above the record low of 2000-01. All tangerines are up 18 percent with a 23 percent gain in the early category and a 10 percent increase in the Honey variety. Large losses and record lows occurred in the smallest crops with K-Early Citrus down 25 percent, limes down 40 percent, and lemons down 68 percent.

  Bearing acreage is down nearly 4 percent to 728,500 acres with declines for every fruit type except K-Early Citrus. Bearing orange acreage is down 3 percent, grapefruit and tangerines are down 6 percent, and larger declines occurred in specialty fruit. Later maturing Valencia oranges and Honey tangerines account for larger portions of the bearing orange and tangerine acreage. Bearing grapefruit acreage is planted 60 percent colored and 40 percent white.

   California's bearing acreage decreased only 200 acres and citrus production declined about 3 percent. A decrease in Navel oranges was offset by an increase in Valencia production, with a resulting 3 percent gain in all oranges. Fresh use accounts for 85 percent of the total. Grapefruit bearing acreage is down about 3 percent but production fell 5 percent to the lowest since 1973-74. Lemon acreage remained the same but production dropped 16 percent. Fresh use is a record high but processed use is at the lowest level since 1990-91. Tangerine acreage increased 2 percent and the crop size was steady.

  Bearing acreage remained steady but citrus production in Texas fell 19 percent. Early-midseason oranges are down 24 percent and Valencias are down 11 percent but both are 5 percent above the 1999-00 levels. Grapefruit production is down 18 percent and near the harvest of 1999-00.

  Bearing acreage in Arizona is unchanged from 2000-01 but production dropped 25 percent. The lemon crop is down 22 percent. Grapefruit, steadily declining for a decade, is down 36 percent, and down 94 percent from 1991-92. Orange production is down 42 percent and below 1.0 million boxes for the second consecutive season.

Value

  The preliminary 2001-02 on-tree value of all citrus is $879 million, up 2 percent from the revised value of $862 million for the previous season. Price per box and value were lower for most fruit types.

  The value of production for all oranges was up slightly with the increase for Valencias offsetting the decrease in early-mid-Navels. The average price per box was lower except for Navels. Grapefruit value was down 4 percent with the white category decreasing more than the colored. The average is below the revised 2000-01 price per box for white, colored, and all grapefruit.

  Value of production and the average price per box increased for Temples, tangelos, early tangerines, Honey tangerines, and all tangerines. With the price down 48 percent and production below the level of the Hurricane Andrew season, value of the lime crop fell below $1 million. The lemon price was unchanged but value fell 68 percent. Price and value were decreased for the K-Early Citrus Fruit.

  Preliminary value is based on that part of the crop priced at harvest, which accounts for all of the fresh fruit and about 40 percent of the processed. Nearly one-half of the processed oranges were priced but the figure for processed grapefruit and tangerines is about one-quarter of the total.

Foreign Exports

  Fresh fruit exports totaled 22.3 million 4/5 bushel cartons, up 66,000 from 2000-01. Canada accounts for the most receipts of Florida oranges and specialty fruit while Japan receives the most grapefruit. More details are listed on page 39.

  A record total of 29.3 million gallons of FCOJ was exported, mostly to Canada, and Florida exported 5.6 million gallons of FCGJ. FCOJ exports are the highest since 1996-97 and FCGJ exports decreased for the first time since 1998-99.

Frozen Concentrate

  The final FCOJ yields, reported by the Florida Citrus Processors Association, were higher for all oranges (1.581598) and late oranges (1.657887) but lower for early-midseason fruit (1.527736) than the previous season and all were below the records set in 1998-99.

  For fruit going into concentrate, the price per box was higher for all orange varieties and white grapefruit. Although higher for oranges and white grapefruit, the price per pound of solids remained below $1.00. The price per box and price per pound of solids declined over 40 percent for colored grapefruit. The tangerine price per box is down $0.99 from 2000-01.

Prices

  All prices reported in this publication, except the concentrate prices in the table on page one, are on-tree prices representing the average price received by growers for their fruit. The term "on-tree" relates to fruit returns to the grower after the costs of picking, hauling, and packing have been removed. Prices are based on records of commercial fresh fruit sales and processed fruit returns.

  Each season, beginning with the first month that three percent of a fruit type is harvested, monthly estimates are computed. Reports from fresh fruit sales organizations and from packers provide data for an average f.o.b. price. Processors report an average spot and cash price for fruit delivered to their plants. From these values, an estimated charge for picking, hauling, and packing is deducted to arrive at an on-tree price. The anticipated box utilization for the month is used to combine the fresh and processing price to obtain an average price for all methods of sales.

  At the season's end, monthly price averages are computed and weighted by boxes utilized, to provide the preliminary season average price. A year later, after most processed products are sold, cooperatives and firms with participation plans report prices of fruit they handled. These prices, combined with the spot and cash prices collected earlier, are weighted together by varieties to determine the final processing price received bygrowers. From this price, charges for picking, hauling, and packing, as estimated by University of Florida economists, are deducted to arrive at the final on-tree price received by growers. These preliminary figures for the season just ended, the revised figures for the previous season, and county production by type are released annually in late September.


Packout Rates

  Fresh prices shown in this publication are for “pure fresh” or 100% packout. Grading diverts a portion of the crop from fresh use. Returns at processing plants for this diverted fruit will generally be less than for field run fruit because of extra costs. In order to compare fresh prices shown in this publication to the individual grower's return it is necessary to calculate a derived price for that crop. Below is an example and a blank table for calculating fresh returns based on packout rates.

  The example describes a delivery of 1,000 boxes with a packout rate of 60% (0.60 in decimal format). At this rate, 600 boxes (1,000 X 0.60) are shipped fresh at a price of $9.50 per 1 3/5 bushel box equivalent. The remaining 400 boxes (1,000 X 0.40) are eliminations which are hauled to a processing facility and receive a price of $1.20. The grower receives $5,700.00 for the fresh portion and $480.00 for the processed portion. Dividing the total amount of $6,180.00 by the total of 1,000 boxes results in a derived price of $6.18 per box.

2001-02 Florida Weather Highlights, Selected Areas, And Months

  For the second consecutive year, dry conditions prevailed in the beginning. A light freeze the last week of December 2000 nipped some of the tender bloom wood. A few light, scattered showers fell during the first few weeks of 2001. Growers utilized irrigation to maintain good tree condition. By late January and early February trees started producing some feathery new growth and pin head bloom buds. February was generally dry, overcast and cool.

   In general, open bloom appeared by mid- March. However, some trees were just pushing out a little new growth and pin head buds. Several scattered showers during the month helped the blooming cycle progress. Due to infrequent rains growers and caretakers continued to use irrigation to maintain good tree condition. During the first week of April, pounding hard rains helped produce some new growth. The warm moist conditions also put and end to this year's blooming cycle. The additional surface soil moisture helped place many groves in good condition for the remainder of the month.

  Hard daylong rains the first week of May permitted many irrigation systems to be shut down. As usual, the remainder of May was generally hot and dry. Only a very few light scattered showers occurred until the last week of May when several thunderstorms covered virtually all of the citrus belt. June started with some of the normal summer rains which continued throughout the month. By the second week of June most trees had shed the excessive fruit which could not be supported for the coming season. June was filled with welcomed afternoon rains and thunderstorms. Virtually all groves returned to good condition with an abundance of new growth. New crop fruit sized well with the benefit of the additional moisture.

  All areas of Florida's citrus belt received abundant rains during the summer months. Also, Tropical Storm Barry in the first week of August deposited 2-6 inches of additional moisture in Florida's groves. By late summer, lakes, ponds, and water reservoirs were well on their way toward refilling. Groves, trees, and fruit made excellent progress all summer long. New crop fruit sized well with the help of all of the rain. Very little fruit loss due to abnormal droppage occurred.

  Tropical Storm Gabrielle deposited four to 10 inches of additional rainfall on groves in mid- September. Growers had to pump out excessive water. Caretakers ditched and deep plowed grove middles to move water away from the trees roots. June through September were very wet months when most all of the canals and ditches leading to and from the flatwoods groves were full and over running.
   October and November were typically mild and somewhat dry months with only scattered rains. Harvest progressed rapidly during the early fall months. Fruit color and maturity were slightly above average. Fresh fruit packinghouses were very active during the first three weeks of December to meet the needs of the major grocery chains. Fund- raising organizations such as clubs, churches, and civic groups ordered many truck loads of fresh Navels, grapefruit, and tangerines.

   December was generally a dry month with only scattered showers and a few thunderstorms. Caretakers had to irrigate to maintain good tree condition and to prevent wilt in some of the high sand hill groves. The first week of January 2002 included a mild freeze with temperatures dropping into the upper 20s. There was very little, if any, damage to the unharvested portion of the crop and no tree damage. The cold temperatures did help slow down any new tree growth. Frost was minimal. Then on the morning of January 9, another freeze occurred but temperatures again were not low enough for long enough to produce significant damage.

  Feathery new growth started gradually showing the last of January and by the middle of February there was significant new growth and pin head bloom buds. On February 27 there was a minor freeze where temperatures dipped in the low 30s and upper 20s with only minimal leaf burn in the coldest locations. Temperatures were not low enough to do significant damage to the fruit remaining to be harvested. During the first week of March all areas of the citrus belt received hard daylong rains that helped produce some open bloom and more new growth. The rest of the month was generally dry and growers were irrigating to keep trees in good condition.

  Most of April and May were dry and hot. Growers and caretakers used all types of irrigation to keep trees in good condition as the new crop of fruit was setting on the trees for the next season. Hard soaking rains finally arrived the last of May and the irrigation equipment got a rest after almost three months of steady use. Valencia harvest was very active during April and May. Summer rains arrived around mid-June.

  Charted below is the historical average of monthly rainfall which includes data from two stations in each of the citrus producing areas. The ten stations are: Avon Park (2 W), Arcadia, Clermont (7 S), Clewiston (US Engineers), Immokalee (3 NNW), Lake Alfred (Experiment Station), Orlando (WSO McCoy), Plant City, Stuart (1 N), and Vero Beach (4 W).

History of Florida's Citrus Industry

  The citrus tree is a native of the Orient. From there it was carried ever westward by man, to India, to the Mediterranean, and on across the Atlantic. Citrus was brought to the Americas by Columbus. When he landed on November 22, 1493, he brought citrus seeds that were planted on the island of Hispaniola. The first seeds planted on the mainland of the Americas were brought by the expedition of Juan de Grijalva when he landed in Central America between July 12 and July 20, 1518. The exact date of the introduction of citrus trees into Florida is not known, but from a statement made by Pedro Medendez, dated April 2, 1579, it appears that citrus fruits were grown in abundance around St. Augustine at that time.

  Early settlers in Florida some two centuries later found wild citrus trees scattered over the State. One of the oldest cultivated groves planted in Florida (Hume, 1926, p. 95) is thought to have been the Don Phillipe grove in Pinellas County, planted sometime between the years of 1809 and 1820. Nearly 1.5 million boxes were shipped in 1887-88, the first season on record. Citrus production in Florida had reached an all time high of more than 5 million boxes when the Great Freeze of 1894-95 almost totally wiped out the citrus industry. It was not until 1909-10 that this level was reached again. In the 2001-02 season, Florida produced 287.3 million boxes representing 78 percent of the Nation's citrus production.
