The forecasted harvested area for tangerines, satsumas, clementines, and mandarines in the Philippines shows a gradual decline from 8.37 thousand hectares in 2024 to 8.21 thousand hectares in 2028. The year-on-year percentage variations indicate a nearly consistent 0.48% annual decrease over the forecast period. This trend mirrors the previous year's actual data, suggesting a steady reduction trajectory. The Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 reflects an average annual decline. This decline represents subtle shifts in agricultural planning or external factors impacting the cultivation of these citrus fruits.
Future trends to watch for include:
- Changes in consumer demand for tangerines, satsumas, clementines, and mandarines that may affect cultivation plans.
- Technological advancements in agricultural practices that might improve yield efficiency and counteract declining harvested areas.
- Impact of climate change on crop viability and potential area reductions.
- Evolving trade policies and economic conditions that could influence crop viability and investment in farming areas.
