The country’s citrus production per acre stands at approximately 4.6 tons, almost half of India’s 9 tons per acre, according to the University of Agriculture Faisalabad (UAF).


Disease, malpractice, mismanagement along with fake chemical fertilisers and pesticides are pushing production levels down, UAF Vice Chancellor Dr Iqrar Ahmad Khan told The Express Tribune. Developed and emerging economies like US, Spain and Brazil produce 12 to 15 tons per acre, triple Pakistan’s per acre production.


Pakistan, 13th largest grower of the fruit in the world, produces 2.36 million tons annually which is grown over 199,000 hectares.
