Earlier Report Observations

Orange production in Jamaica showed overall growth from 70 758 t in 2018 to 76 818 t in 2023, with domestic market volume expanding from 69 713 t to 76 619 t. This increase was supported by a global rise in health-conscious consumption, as demand for natural vitamin C sources like oranges and orange juice strengthened during the COVID-19 pandemic. Consumer preference for fresh and organic products further sustained market expansion throughout the period.

The slight dips in production to 71 144 t in 2020 and 70 622 t in 2021 coincided with widespread supply chain disruptions and freight delays caused by the pandemic, which affected agricultural operations and logistics. Extreme weather events and persistent pest pressures in major orange-growing regions also presented challenges to steady output during these years.

From 2022, production rebounded strongly, reaching 74 153 t in 2022 and 76 818 t in 2023. This recovery was facilitated by advancements in farming practices, including precision agriculture and improved crop resilience, which helped boost yields. The ongoing consumer trend toward healthy, natural foods continued to drive domestic demand, supporting the market's upward trajectory.
