Volume 48, No. 43 – October 23, 2025
Disclaimer: The navel prices listed below are reported to CCM from various industry representatives each week. The lemon and grapefruit prices are pulled from USDA and reflect the spot market price. Both sets of data represent a range of prices that are then calculated into an average. Growers should consult their packing houses if they have specific questions about the price they are receiving for their fruit.

Lemons
*Please note that these lemon prices are from the USDA and include other costs. The prices are used to evaluate trends. They do not reflect the returns growers receive but rather voluntary prices reported to the USDA.
D2 lemon harvesting has concluded for the most part. Lemon harvesting has just begun in D1 and is around 25% through in D3. Overall, we’ve seen good fruit appearance, other than some spotty thrips damage. Utilization has been strong, and peak sizes are 115s, 140s, and 165s. Although it’s still early, it’s been a strong start to the D1 and D3 lemon seasons.
