In 2023, Spain dominated the European citrus production landscape with over half of the total harvest share, despite a slight decline. Italy showed strong growth, increasing its share significantly, while Greek production slightly contracted. Portugal and France exhibited moderate growth, whereas Cyprus experienced a notable decrease. Croatia's production slightly declined, and Montenegro witnessed a marginal increase. Bosnia and Herzegovina's contribution fell drastically to zero.
Looking forward, several trends could impact the citrus production landscape in Europe. Climate change could influence yield variability, technological advancements might enhance productivity, and shifts in European Union agricultural policies could affect production strategies across member states.
