With the recent rain and forecasted rain triggering Postbloom Fruit Drop (PFD) alerts in multiple locations, please visit the Citrus Advisory System – AgroClimate regularly to monitor the situation along with bloom status in your blocks with PFD history. It is uncertain whether there will be enough rain and warm temperatures to trigger a major event at any specific location, but vigilance is key.
Growers on the Ridge should be particularly vigilant.
