Israel will ship $34,000,000 worth of citrus fruits to foreign markets this year, despite a relatively lower crop as compared with last year, Tzvi Isaacson, head of the Israeli Citrus Marketing Delegation, declared here today before leaving for Europe. The value of the crop to be shipped this year is the same as last season’s, he said.
The Citrus Marketing Board, Mr. Isaacson declared is “flooded with new orders,” and will ship first of all to its previously-established markets in England, the Scandinavian countries, and Eastern Europe.
