Abstract

In June 2016, a group of Florida citrus growers and industry representatives embarked on a trip to tour the Brazilian citrus industry. The primary purpose of the trip was to learn more about how huanglongbing (HLB or citrus greening) is being managed in Brazil and how it could aid Florida in battling the disease.

This is an article recapping what we learned when in Brazil.  The primary purpose of the trip is to see how they are managing HLB and if those practices could be incorporated into Florida citrus production programs to aid us in battling greening.
