ORANGE

Description

Product features and area of production

The Mediterranean areas (the south of Italy and Spain) are perfect for cultivation of Citrus fruit in general, thanks to the temperature variation between summer and winter and between day and night.

Sweet oranges grow in a range of different sizes, and shapes varying from spherical to oblong.
The grainy irregular rind of the ripe fruit can range from bright orange to yellow-orange and also red-spotted in some varieties.
“Oranges” are subdivided into four classes with distinct characteristics: common oranges, blood or pigmented oranges, navel oranges and acidless oranges.
