With Florida’s citrus industry already suffer- ing from the growing skepticism of an increasingly health-conscious American public as to orange juice’s benefits,1 the emergence of citrus greening disease over the past two decades has left the orange’s long-term future very much in doubt.2 A devastating virus first documented in China roughly one hundred years ago, citrus greening disease (or “HLB”), has only migrated to Florida in the past twenty years, but has quickly made up for lost time.3 Primarily transmitted by an insect known as the Asian citrus psyllid (“ACP”), the disease has devastated Florida growers in recent years, wiping out entire groves and significantly affecting trees’ overall yield.4 This past year, Florida growers experienced their least productive harvest in forty years, and current estimates of next year’s yield are equally dismal.5 * J.D.

  • ASTRA Peeling Machine Can Peel the Thin Yellow Surface of the Lemon
    By ASTRA Lemon, orange, grapefruit, pomelo… all these types of citrus not only taste delicious but also smell good. Citrus skins are juicy and contain rich aroma, which can serve different functions such as flavoring drinks, seasoning food, or making fragrances. The rich aroma is mainly contained in the very surface of the skin (flavedo) and the white part (albedo) often contains bitter taste. In other words, when using the citrus aroma, you only need the very surface of the skin, and the other part distracts the aroma. An ordinary peeling machine is not very good at peeling the very surface (flavedo). Since it is designed to peel the whole citrus skin, it always peels the whole skin, and the function of adjusting peeling depth is poor. So, most of the people still peel by their hands when they need flavedo. ASTRA fruit peeling machine is completely different from the ordinary peeling machine. It uses peeler blade to peel, and traces the human hand movement. This makes the machine possible to adjust the peeling depth, as a result it can peel the very surface (flavedo) of the citrus, in great speed and higher quality compared to hand peeling. Same lemon, different peeling depth 1. Peeling the surface (flavedo) Video 00:00~ The surface of a lemon skin is needed in large quantities in the catering sector (e.g., bakeries, cake shops, and juice bars) and distilleries when making liquors such as limoncello and Licor de oro. In such circumstances, the traditional type of ‘round peeler’ is usually used in business.

The current citrus IPM guidelines have been established from years of experiments and experience in oranges, with no specific guidelines for mandarins. In the absence of re- search into key arthropod pest effects in mandarins, the assumption that the pest management practices for or- anges appropriately transfer for optimal production in mandarins has not been tested. We used a data mining or ‘ecoinformatics’ approach in which we compiled and analyzed production records collected by growers and pest control advisors to gain an overview of direct pest densities and their relationships with fruit damage for 202 commercial groves, each surveyed for 1–10 yr in the main production region of California. Pest densities were different among four commonly grown species of citrus marketed as mandarins (Citrus reticulata, C.

  • Cinnamon Kumquats
    Preserve Today, Relish Tomorrow UCCE Master Food Preservers of El Dorado County 311 Fair Lane, Placerville CA 95667 Helpline (530) 621-5506 • Email: [email protected] • Visit us on Facebook and Twitter! Cinnamon Kumquats “How about a kumquat, my little chickadee?” (W.C. Fields, My Little Chickadee,1940) Say what? Yes, I said kumquats. Those adorable little kumquats. You know, those “things” that you have been so curious about. Another idea for using citrus that is not a marmalade. Vive la différence! That said, a kumquat marmalade is nothing short of marvelous. Honestly. “A kumquat is not an orange though it wants to be one, especially when they’re around other kumquats. (W.C. Fields, It’s A Gift, 1934) Kumquats are native to China, and their name comes from the Cantonese kam kwat, which means "golden orange." They are a symbol of prosperity and a traditional gift at Lunar New Year. Unlike other citrus, kumquats are eaten whole, including the skin. They have a tart-bitter-sweet taste that is boldly refreshing. Ya gotta try one. Really. Just pop one in your mouth and go for it. Fresh kumquats are wonderful in salads and in savory dishes. They are also great in chutneys and relishes. We canned them in a sweet cinnamon syrup. They can then be eaten right out of the jar like candy or used in desserts such as pound cakes or cheesecakes. The syrup is wonderful for drizzles, too. Savory ideas: use them in salads (use the syrup in your dressing!), they would be perfect with ham, maybe as a glaze for chicken wings (I would add some hot sauce, too).

  • Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 1
    Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 Lecture 32 Citrus Citrus: Citrus spp., Rutaceae Citrus are subtropical, evergreen plants originating in southeast Asia and the Malay archipelago but the precise origins are obscure. There are about 1600 species in the subfamily Aurantioideae. The tribe Citreae has 13 genera, most of which are graft and cross compatible with the genus Citrus. There are some tropical species (pomelo). All Citrus combined are the most important fruit crop next to grape. 1 Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 The common features are a superior ovary on a raised disc, transparent (pellucid) dots on leaves, and the presence of aromatic oils in leaves and fruits. Citrus has increased in importance in the United States with the development of frozen concentrate which is much superior to canned citrus juice. Per-capita consumption in the US is extremely high. Citrus mitis (calamondin), a miniature orange, is widely grown as an ornamental house pot plant. History Citrus is first mentioned in Chinese literature in 2200 BCE. First citrus in Europe seems to have been the citron, a fruit which has religious significance in Jewish festivals. Mentioned in 310 BCE by Theophrastus. Lemons and limes and sour orange may have been mutations of the citron. The Romans grew sour orange and lemons in 50–100 CE; the first mention of sweet orange in Europe was made in 1400. Columbus brought citrus on his second voyage in 1493 and the first plantation started in Haiti. In 1565 the first citrus was brought to the US in Saint Augustine. 2 Tropical Horticulture: Lecture 32 Taxonomy Citrus classification based on morphology of mature fruit (e.g.
