Argentina Lime Market Analysis

In Argentina, lemons and limes dominate citrus production, making up over half of the nation's total citrus yield. Notably, Argentina stands as one of the world's top lime producers. While a significant portion of the country's lemons is earmarked for processing, Argentina's favorable growing conditions and ample land bolster its lime and lemon production. Consistently ranked among the globe's top five lemon producers, Argentina has seen annual lemon yields hover between 1.5 to 2 million metric tons. The country’s lemon production represents a significant share of the global supply, with a large proportion of its output dedicated to export. Besides, Argentina is a major exporter of lemons, particularly to markets in Europe, North America, and Asia. The EU, Russia, and the United States are the primary destinations for Argentine lemon exports. In 2023, Argentina was the second-largest exporter of lemons in the world, after Mexico.

Production of lemons and limes is concentrated mainly in Tucuman, Salta, and Jujuy, with some lesser activity in northeastern Argentina. Recently, the planted area for lemon and lime cultivation in northwest Argentina has seen notable expansion. Through tree removal and replanting, growers have enhanced the plant-per-hectare ratio, leading to better production efficiency and yields. This uptick in planted areas is poised to propel market growth in the coming years.

Argentina is capitalizing on a surging global appetite for lemons, especially in Europe, where lemons play a pivotal role in cooking, beverages, and as flavor enhancers. Furthermore, the rising demand for lemon-derived products, like lemon juice, is a significant growth driver for the industry. Argentine lemon producers enjoy a cost advantage over other major producers, bolstering their competitiveness in the global arena.
