Alico Inc., a major Florida citrus grower, announced it will end its citrus operations after this year’s harvest, citing damage from hurricanes and tree diseases. The company says the decision comes after its citrus production dropped by 73% over the past decade. They say hurricanes combined with citrus greening disease, made growing citrus economically unfeasible. Alico will manage some citrus acres through 2026, while considering land development for commercial or residential projects.
