Sažetak

The genus Citrus includes some of the most important non-climacteric fruit species grown in more than 140 countries of the world, mainly in subtropical and tropical areas. Due to its nutritional properties and wide application, the lemon ranks third in global production after oranges and mandarins. The largest lemon producers in the world are India, Mexico, Argentina, China, Spain and
the USA. In Croatia, lemon production is concentrated in the micro-localities of the central and southern Dalmatia and on the islands. In 2021, 262 tonnes were produced, which corresponds to around 2.65% of domestic consumption. Due to consumers awareness of healthier lifestyles and consumption of food without pesticide residues, as well as the role that lemons play in consumption, the growing potential lies in their organic production. The growing awareness of consumers and producers, as well as the support for organic farming have an impact on the sustainability of this production. Education of farmers, financial support for plantation farming and support for certification and promotion of lemons and finished products would have a significant impact on the expansion of the area under lemon cultivation.
