Bottles of Simply Orange orange juice are displayed for sale in a grocery store on September 28, 2023 in Los Angeles, California., traded on the Intercontinental Exchange in New York, closed at $4.29 per pound on Monday — nearly double the price registered a year ago.
"Restoring normal stock levels in Brazil will require several consecutive good harvests. With 40% of Brazilian plantations affected by greening disease and the risk of this number increasing, coupled with volatile climate conditions, the likelihood of achieving such harvests is low," the IFU's Cools said.
Andres Padilla, a food and agribusiness research specialist at Rabobank, said that the high incidence of citrus greening will likely limit productivity over the coming months.
