The recent signing of a revised citrus protocol between South Africa and China by Agriculture, Land Affairs and Rural Development Minister Thoko Didiza will secure R325-million in new export revenue and create 800 jobs in the industry, the Citrus Growers’ Association of South Africa (CGASA) says. With local lemon production expected to grow by 175 000 t by 2024, the finalisation of the revised protocol means China will become a critical new market for growth.
