Lemon shipments from Chile began at week 19, the same week as the previous season, as reported by the Citrus Committee of Chile ASOEX BB #:156234.

In week 20, 98 tons of this fruit were shipped, with an accumulated volume of 193 tons, a figure that reflects a decrease of 93% compared to the same date in 2021. 64% of this volume has been destined for the U.S. and the rest for Japan.

Earlier this spring, president of the Citrus Committee, Juan Enrique Ortúzar, projected that Chile would export a volume of 90,000 tons, which is equivalent to 11 percent less than the previous season.
