The Florida citrus processing industry continues to grow in complexity as it serves broader markets, handles an increasing volume of fruit at higher wage and product values, to ever stricter specifications. The trend is toward a blended finished product and away from packaging fruit as it reaches the plant; indeed, packaging is becoming to lose its “seasonal” characteristics so far as packaging and marketing is concerned.

Bulk holding tanks for the storage of juice and concentrates are becoming a way of life in the Florida Citrus Processing Industry. Most of the processors in this industry either have now or are considering some form of bulk tank system. These tanks vary from a few hundred gallons up to one hundred thousand gallons capacity. Outside the State of Florida there are fruit juice holding tanks which approach three hundred thousand gallons, and the wine industry exceeds even this in tank capacity. Tanks of both vertical and horizontal structure are in use. These tanks may be made of stainless steel, coated mild steel, fiberglass reinforced resin or coated concrete. Reinforced, collapsible neoprene “cushion” tanks of up to forty thousand gallons capacity are in use. Paper published with permission.

In Florida, clustered pellitory is becoming a troublesome weed for citrus, especially from the winter through early summer. Inadequate management of this weed can result in its heavy infestation in tree rows and can interrupt the spray pattern of low-volume drip irrigation systems. This new 3-page publication of the UF/IFAS Horticultural Sciences Department will assist Florida citrus growers with proper identification of clustered pellitory and with adoption of adequate and timely strategies to manage this weed in their groves. Written by Ramdas Kanissery, Biwek Gairhe, Brent Sellers, and Steve Futch. https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/hs1341
