Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2021, the Paraguayan market for mandarins, clementines, tangelos and citrus hybrids expanded steadily. Production volumes remained around 49,000 t annually, while imports rose significantly from 586 t to over 8,000 t, driving total market size from 49,386 t to 57,854 t.

In 2022, production plummeted to 17,661 t, pulling market size down to 22,259 t. During this period, family-operated Cítricos Paraguay was actively expanding its certified citrus varieties, including mandarins, signaling ongoing investment in the sector. The following year saw a partial recovery to 23,608 t of production and 28,306 t of market volume. Globally, adverse weather conditions during flowering, drought-related water shortages, and pest outbreaks in major citrus regions like Spain constrained supplies and affected fruit quality.

Import flows fluctuated after 2022, reaching 8,007 t in 2024 before dropping again. International trade data indicated a 15% rebound in citrus exports from Spain in the 2023/2024 season compared to the previous year, highlighting the volatility in global citrus markets that can influence local availability and prices.
