FIorida's Citrus
Crop Will Be Near
100000 Boxes

Production of citrus fruits IN tl2r-
ida for the season of 1928 is es-
timatad by the United States depart
mnnt of agriculture at 15,O0O,OOO
boxes. Of this total about 8,400,Ooo
boxes will be oranges and tangerines
and about 100000 boxes grapefruit.
(An early forecast of the California
orange crop, made August l, is 10
100000 boXes).
Last season the commercial CIT
rus crop Of Florida was approx
mately 13,3OO,OOO boxes, Of which
100000 boxes were oranges and
5000, 900 boxes grapefruit. Last years
crop, however, would have been near
err 14,OOO,OOO boxes if the storm OF
October, 1921, had not destroyed q
large percentage of the fruit on the
west coast.
Outstanding features of the croI
for 1929 are the fine quality, the
size of fruit from early bloom, ant
the heavy setting of fruit from lat'
bloom. Bloom last spring was heav!
all over the citrus belt of Florida, eX
cent in the storm-swept territory OF
the west coast. However, the Dir!
weather which followed caused con
siderable shedding of fruit which be
came serious along the east coas
ridge and in parts of the central hlgI
| land section.
