Citrus is a major economic fruit tree planted in southern China, and it can bring generous economic profits to farmers. Because of its astonishing yield, it has already occupied the front ranks of the national high-yield list, and there are now more and more citrus varieties on the market, so consumers can choose freely. So which citrus varieties have good planting prospects now? Let's take a look together below!

1. Hongmeiren

This variety was bred by crossing Nanko and Amakusa. Its growth vigor is medium, the fruit is large and highly oblate, and the single fruit weight reaches 230 grams. The peel is thin and smooth, and when mature the peel color is deep orange and relatively easy to peel. The flesh is orange, tender and melting, with a texture resembling jelly, juicy and sweet, and rich in nutrients. The fruit generally matures in late October.

This variety is suitable for planting in Zhejiang, Sichuan, Chongqing, Hunan and other places. Because the peel is thin, it is prone to fruit cracking, so during drought it is necessary to irrigate in time to reduce the occurrence of fruit cracking.

2. Daya Mandarin

This variety was bred by crossing Kiyomi orange and Xinshengxi No. 3 ponkan. The tree vigor is moderate, the fruit is large and broadly ovate, with an average single fruit weight of 270 grams. The peel is orange-yellow, loose and easy to peel. The flesh is tender and melting, juicy with a rich flavor, sweet and sour and refreshing, and the quality is extremely excellent. It matures in late January, but it is not tolerant of storage and transport, and has high nutritional value.

This variety is mainly planted in Sichuan and other places. Because of its high fruit-setting rate, it can easily lead to weakened tree vigor, so water and fertilizer management need to be strengthened, and bagging technology should be implemented to reduce the occurrence of fruit freezing injury.

The peel is smooth and delicate, orange, easy to peel, with indistinct ring marks visible. The flesh is tender and melting, with an obvious aroma, juicy and rich in flavor.

This variety is mainly planted in Nanning, Liuzhou and other areas of Guangxi. It has a very large demand for water and fertilizer, but during grafting, leaf yellowing is very likely to occur. Using sweet orange rootstock for grafting can make the quality of Wogan higher. During the planting process, attention should also be paid to strengthening the prevention and control of canker disease.4. Setoka

This variety is a hybrid of Kiyomi and Encore No. 2. The tree vigor is medium to weak, the fruit is highly oblate, the peel is orange-yellow, smooth and glossy, and the flesh has a rich aroma, is crisp and tender and seedless, and contains abundant nutrients.

It is mainly planted in the middle and south subtropical regions. Because the peel is thin, it is prone to sunburn damage, so during cultivation the prevention and control of sunburn should be strengthened, and red tangerine and sweet orange should be selected as rootstocks for grafting.
