The Syrian government has banned the import of oranges of all varieties from November 11 through March 31 to protect domestic production and support farmers. The Ministry of Agriculture estimates citrus production for the 2026–2027 season at around 840,000 tonnes, up 49% from last season. Most of the crop is concentrated in Latakia, with about 639,000 tonnes, and Tartus, with around 201,000 tonnes. Producers face marketing difficulties because of weak exports and high production and transport costs. The ban has also contributed to a 20–40% rise in lemon prices, and producers have called for foreign markets to be opened up to sell the surplus.
