Resumen
There has been no other single factor that has affected the historical distribution of Florida citrus other than freezing temperatures. Since the introduction of citrus by the Spanish in the 1500’s freezing temperatures have dictated where the citrus production areas in Florida are located. This 3-page fact sheet is part of the 2018–2019 Florida Citrus Production Guide. Written by T. Vashisth, W. C. Oswalt, and M. Zekri, and published by the Horticultural Sciences Department, January 2019.
