citrus, Milton and Florida
Hurricane Milton damage blamed for lower citrus crops in Florida
Citrus production in Florida is down, according to a new report. The United States Department of Agriculture suggests Florida could produce enough oranges to fill 12 million 90-pound boxes. That is around 3 million less than what was expected.

But the earlier forecast did not factor in the devastation caused by Hurricane Milton, which plowed right through large portions of citrus country in Florida. Milton blasted the state when it made landfall on Oct. 9 near Sarasota, marching through the interior of Florida before exiting into the Atlantic Ocean near Fort Pierce on Oct. 10.
