Textbook in PDF format The Directorate of Information and Publications of Agriculture (DIPA) of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) has planned to bring out a series of publications under its new ‘Agri-Popular Series’ initiatives. The competent authorities of ICAR have requested the undersigned to write a book on ‘Citrus Fruits’, under this popular series. Presumably such publications are aimed for addressing the long felt demand of extension workers, developmental agencies, farmers and agrientrepreneurs. It is indeed a laudable initiative of the ICAR. I am thankful to the Secretary, DARE and Director-General, ICAR, for giving me the opportunity to write the book on citrus. Citrus fruits as a group are the third most important fruit crops in India. At the global level also citrus production and consumption witnessed a strong growth since mid-1980s, when productions of mandarin orange, sweet orange and acid limes, and lemons have expanded very rapidly. Citrus as fresh fruit and citrus juices as refreshing beverage have large demand globally. Recent estimates show that India has already crossed the 5 million tonnes production mark in 2005. The R&D programmes in citriculture have received good support and thanks to the efforts of research groups in ICAR institutions and SAUs, very useful technologies have been generated. In this book, proven technologies have largely been compiled for the end-users. The book has 10 broad chapters, with major focus on genetic resources, production and post-production technologies, management of citrus decline, valueaddition and marketing of produce, export promotion, R&D and credit support, and on future developmental approach for marking a sound citrus industry in the country. In this book, published information has been freely used. Some information has been collected from electronic media/website, the sources of which have duly been acknowledged. I would like to record my special thanks to the Director and Scientists of the National Research Centre for Citrus, Nagpur, for providing required technical information and photographs. I hope that the information contained in this publication will benefit the citrus growers, citrus processors, various developmental agencies and other stakeholders involved in the promotion of the Citrus Industry in India.
