We Believe in Florida Citrus Podcast: Talking Citrus Under Protective Screen

By Frank Giles|September 20, 2021

Steven Callaham, CEO of the Dundee Citrus Growers Association, joins the podcast to discuss the association’s citrus under protective screen (CUPS) project. More than 300 acres under screen have been constructed to grow citrus in a psyllid-free environment, protecting trees from HLB. CUPS also promotes high-quality fruit and yields up to five times higher than conventional outside production.

We Believe in Florida Citrus is a Florida Grower initiative to highlight the work growers, researchers, and industry are doing to build a positive, more sustainable future for the state’s signature crop.
