A survey was conducted in Spring of 2003 to collect Florida citrus harvesting charges (picking, roadsiding, and hauling). Harvesting charges for the 2002-2003 season were collected for both fresh and processed market citrus fruit. The survey was not a statistically chosen sample; therefore, the charges may not represent Florida's total citrus industry. The participants were chosen because of their willingness to provide their harvesting charges. The survey will continue as long as there is adequate participation. This is EDIS document FE435, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, UF/IFAS, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

In the analysis presented in this paper, the benefits of the Citrus Canker Eradication Program (CCEP) on Florida's specialty citrus fruit industry are estimated through an analysis of the Florida citrus industry under the scenario that citrus canker has become established, holding all other factors constant. The net change in revenue in the fresh and processed markets and the additional costs of production were the measurements of the estimated benefits. This is EDIS document FE535, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

In the analysis presented in this paper, the benefits of the CCEP are predicted through an analysis of the Florida citrus industry under the scenario that citrus canker has become endemic. The estimated net change in revenue in the fresh and processed markets and the additional costs of production were the measurements of the predicted benefits. This is EDIS document FE534, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.

Change has kept the Florida citrus industry competitive during the last century. The Florida citrus industry is now facing one of its greatest challenges -- the change to mechanical harvesting or lose competitiveness in the global juice market. It is a general consensus among industry leaders that efficiencies in harvesting offer the greatest potential to reduce costs and keep our juice industry economically viable. Other tree crops (tart and sweet cherry, pistachios, prunes, olives) that would have been lost, have moved to mechanical harvesting to survive, but a generation of change was required and thinking had to be adjusted in lines with a commodity. This document is HS974, one of a series of the Horticultural Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

As discussed in other documents regarding various aspects of mechanical harvesting, Florida citrus growers must adopt new technology to reduce harvesting costs, thus allowing our citrus industry to compete with low-wage countries in a global juice marketplace. Trunk shake systems are a viable mechanical harvesting system which growers should consider in an effort to lower harvesting costs, increase fruit returns, and remain competitive. This document is HS1005, one of a series of the Horticultural Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida.

Mechanical harvesting systems harvested more than 17,000 acres of Florida citrus in the 2002-03 season. Two types of mechanical harvesters are being used today: continuous canopy shake and trunk shake systems. Continuous canopy shake systems will be discussed in this article and trunk shake harvesting systems will be discussed in other documents. This document is HS1006, one of a series of the Horticultural Sciences Department, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida. Published March 2005.
