Citrus Fruits 2021 Summary (September 2021) 7 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Citrus Utilized Production Down 12 Percent, Value Down 3 Percent

Citrus utilized production for the 2020-21 season totaled 6.90 million tons, down 12 percent from the 2019-20 season.

California accounted for 60 percent of total United States citrus production; Florida totaled 38 percent, and Texas and

Arizona produced the remaining 2 percent.

Utilized citrus production in California was down 3 percent from the 2019-20 season. California's all orange production,

at 50.1 million boxes, is 7 percent lower than the previous season. Grapefruit production is down 17 percent from the

2019-20 season and tangerine and mandarin production is up 25 percent.

Florida's orange production, at 52.8 million boxes, is down 22 percent from the previous season. Grapefruit utilization in

Florida, at 4.10 million boxes, is down 15 percent from last season's utilization. Florida's total citrus utilization was

down 21 percent from the previous season. Bearing citrus acreage, at 369,300 acres, is 11,200 acres below the 2019-20

season.

Utilized production of citrus in Texas is down 39 percent from the 2019-20 season. Orange production is down 22 percent

from the previous season and grapefruit production is down 45 percent. Arizona’s production of lemon is

down 56 percent.

The value of the 2020-21 United States citrus crop was down 3 percent from last season, to 3.31 billion (packinghouse-

door equivalent). Orange value of production decreased 7 percent from last season and grapefruit value is up 11 percent.

Tangerine and mandarin value of production is up 2 percent from last season and lemon value of production is

down slightly from last season.

Overall comparisons discussed above are based on similar fruit types. The revised production and utilization estimates are

based on all data available at the end of the marketing season, including information from marketing orders, shipments,

and processor records. Allowances are made for recorded local utilization and home use. Estimates for the 2020-21

California Valencia oranges and grapefruit are preliminary, since the marketing season is not complete at publication

time. Revisions to the utilized production estimates for all citrus for the 2020-21 season will be published in the April

2022 Crop Production.

Citrus Fruits 2021 Summary (September 2021) 15 USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service

Citrus Prices

Revised State and United States monthly average prices and equivalent returns, and marketing year average prices for the

2019-20 and 2020-21 citrus crops are shown on the following pages. Revised monthly prices refer to all fruit sold in a

given month regardless of the crop year in which the fruit was harvested.

Marketing year average prices refer to the prices received by growers for the entire marketing season for any one crop

year. The crop year 2020-21 as shown on all citrus tables in this publication refers to the crop which bloomed in 2020 and

was marketed during the 2020-21 season. For example, the 2020-21 marketing year average price received by Florida

growers for grapefruit refers to marketings from September 2020 through June 2021. In some years the season may vary a

month or two, but a price was estimated only for those months with sufficient movement.

Monthly and marketing year average prices are weighted by box size at the United States level for oranges, grapefruit, and

tangerines and mandarins. See page 28 for approximate net contents per box at the State level.

Citrus prices are based on weighted average F.O.B. packed prices received for fresh fruit and weighted average prices

received at the processing plant door for processing fruit. Equivalent returns for fresh and processed fruits are calculated

at the packinghouse-door level and on-tree level by deducting hauling, picking, sorting, grading, packing, cooling,

marketing, and other costs from the two base prices. In some cases, this results in negative returns.

Terms and Definitions

Citrus crop year: Begins with the bloom of the first year listed and ends with the year harvest is completed.

Equivalent on-tree (EOT) price: Represents the PHD price minus picking and hauling costs.

Freight on board (FOB) price: A commercial price term that signifies a contractual agreement between a buyer and a

seller to have the subject of a sale delivered to a designated place, usually either the "place of shipment" or the "place of

destination," without expense to the buyer. This term indicates delivery will be made on board or into a carrier by the

shipper without charge. The abbreviation FOB is usually followed by a shipping point or destination. Reports from fresh

fruit sales organizations and from citrus packers provide data for an average FOB price.

Packinghouse door (PHD) price: The packinghouse door in generally referred to as the point of first sale. PHD prices

are calculated by subtracting costs incurred through the packinghouse from the FOB price. These costs may include

sorting, grading, packing, cooling, etc.

Marketing Year Average Prices and Value of Production

State level marketing year average (MYA), or price per box, for fresh and processed sales are the weighted average of

monthly sales that occur during a crop's marketing season, adjusted to the packinghouse-door level. The "all" sales MYA

price is derived by dividing the "all" sales value by the "all" sales boxes. MYA prices at the United States level for

commodities with different State box weights are computed as follows:

Fresh Market MYAP = Σ(State Fresh Value * State Box Weight)

Σ(State Fresh Boxes * State Box Weight)

Process Market MYAP = Σ(State Process Value * State Box Weight)

Σ(State Process Boxes * State Box Weight)

"All" Sales MYAP = Σ(State All Value * State Box Weight)

Σ(State All Boxes * State Box Weight)

For commodities with the same box weights across all States, the United States MYA prices are derived by dividing the

sum of States’ values by the sum of States' boxes.

United States value of production for a given commodity is the sum of the States’ values for that commodity. The State

level value of production for each commodity is computed as follows:

Fresh Market Value = Fresh Market MYAP * Fresh Market Boxes

Process Market Value = Process Market MYAP * Process Market Boxes

"All" Sales Value = Fresh Market Value + Process Market Value

Citrus prices are based on weighted average FOB packed prices received for fresh fruit and weighted average prices

received at the processing plant door for processing fruit. Equivalent returns for fresh and processed fruit are calculated at

the packinghouse-door level by deducting sorting, grading, packing, cooling, marketing, and other costs from the two base

prices. In some cases, this results in negative returns.

Statistical Methodology

Survey Procedures: Grower and objective measurement surveys are used to collect acreage, production, yield, price, and

value data. Grower surveys are conducted by mail, telephone, and personal interview. Objective measurement data is

collected in citrus groves.

Estimating Procedures: Information obtained from the citrus grower and objective measurement surveys along with

administrative data is used to establish estimates of bearing acres, production, yield, price, and value. These estimates are

reviewed for errors, reasonableness, and consistency with historical estimates.

Revision Policy: Current season estimates are open for revision in April and August.

Reliability: The citrus grower surveys are subject to non-sampling errors such as omission, duplication, and mistakes in

reporting, recording, and processing the data. These errors cannot be measured directly, but are minimized through rigid

quality controls in the data collection process and a careful review of all reported data for consistency and reasonableness.
