Cepea, May 6 2019 – As the harvesting of the 2019/20 orange crop steps up in the orchards of São Paulo, citrus prices dropped in the in natura market in April – this scenario should still be observed in May.

Concerning early oranges (rubi, hamlin and westin, for instance), trades have been closed since March
