Abstract: Alico Inc., a major US orange grower and supplier to Tropicana, has announced the closure of its citrus division due to a long-term decline in production caused by disease and hurricanes. The Florida-based company will transition into a diversified land company after the current crop is harvested in 2025. This decision reflects the challenges faced by Florida's citrus industry, with Alico citing a more than 70% decline in citrus production over the past decade due to greening disease and hurricane damage.
