US Citrus Fruit Production
Oranges make up over 60% of the citrus produced in the US, as shown in this Marimekko chart. Farmers in California and Florida are the principal suppliers of most types of citrus fruit. Jointly, they supply almost all the oranges. California alone supplies almost all the lemons, tangerines, mandarins and tangelos. Grapefruit are supplied almost equally by Texas, Florida and California. Data for this chart are provided by the USDA Economic Research Service, Fruit and Tree Nuts Outlook. The USDA is projecting significant growth in the 2018/19 season in all citrus categories, except lemons.
