The Belize Government has approved a one-time subsidy of one million dollars to support the citrus industry, focusing on purchasing fertilizers for citrus orchards. This initiative aims to boost production as the sector recovers from a challenging period marked by decreased output. The government is taking active steps to revitalize the citrus industry, ensuring its sustainability and economic growth.
The government also emphasizes digital advancements to enhance production processes and market expansion. Increased local consumption and the opening of new digital markets, particularly in neighboring regions, are expected to further strengthen the industry’s recovery.
