The Syrian Ministry of Agriculture valued this year’s citrus crop at about $588 million, with production expected to reach 840,000 tonnes. Most of the crop is concentrated in Latakia and Tartus, and its proceeds benefit around 50,000 families. Production rose 18% compared with the average of the past ten years, thanks to improved environmental conditions and increased rainfall. The crop is expected to meet market needs through the end of April 2027, with a surplus available for export. Farmers face weak export demand, a shortage of sorting and packing centers, and high fuel and transportation costs. As a result, profit margins remain low, even though prices cover production costs. To support local produce, the entry of oranges into Syria was banned from November 11 through March 31.
