Zimbabwe is finalizing preparations to start fresh citrus exports to China, following virtual inspections done by the General Administration of Customs of China (GACC) last month.
<a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/John_Basera">John Basera</a>, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Lands, Agriculture, Fisheries, Water and Rural Development, said Zimbabwe is now finalizing its post-inspection report for submission to China in the next few days. He told <a href="http://en.people.cn/n3/2022/0930/c90000-10153821.html">Xinhua</a>: 
<blockquote>
Zimbabwe is finalizing preparations to export citrus fruits to China by clarifying queries arising from the virtual inspections done by China’s General Administration of Customs (GACC) in August.
</blockquote>
He said some of the queries are related to:
<blockquote>
1). the use of orchard numbers as opposed to production unit code to improve traceability, 
2). strengthening pest and disease management in the field and at pack houses to minimize infestation of harvested citrus, 
3). clarifying the cold treatment of citrus destined for China.
</blockquote>
Basera said Zimbabwe intends to sell oranges, lemons and grapefruits to China, for the time being. 
Zimbabwe has the advantage of good natural conditions that are beneficial for producing cheap, sweet and juicy citrus.
The country’s marketing period is also different from the domestic citrus market in China, which can meet a certain demand in the Chinese market.
Zimbabwe’s trade promotion body, <a href="https://www.pindula.co.zw/ZimTrade">ZimTrade</a>, has since welcomed the move by China to allow imports of Zimbabwean citrus fruits, saying this will help Zimbabwe diversify its export markets.
The Zimbabwean government is currently working on scaling up horticulture production to meet the growing demand for citrus fruits worldwide. 
Early this month, Zimbabwean Finance Minister Mthuli Ncube launched a US$30 million horticulture export revolving fund to help farmers boost production. This was after reports that <a href="https://zero.pindula.co.zw/citrus-production-declines-from-10k-hectares-to-5k-hectares-govt/">citrus production had declined</a> over the years.

"Zimbabwe Finalising Preparations To Start Citrus Exports To China" - Minister

South Africa’s citrus industry fears that more than R654 million worth of fruit – already on the way to Europe – may be destroyed by authorities there.
About 3.2 million cartons of fruit will arrive in the European Union (EU) after 14 July, when the European Union’s new regulations for Southern African citrus kick in.
The impact of the regulation is a threat to South Africa’s 800 000 tons of annual export to Europe.
Business Insider reports that the European Union’s (EU) new cold-treatment regulations which were voted for last month will force southern African countries to implement extreme cold treatment to tackle false codling moth (FCM).
More properly called Thaumatotibia leucotreta, the moth is known to feed on anything from avocado to maize, making its small and inconspicuous eggs a feared contaminant in fruit shipments.
Deon Joubert, the Citrus Growers’ Association’s (CGA) special envoy for market access and EU matters said:
<blockquote>
These regulations make extensive changes to the current applicable phytosanitary requirements for citrus coming from South Africa.
They require that imports of citrus fruit must undergo specified mandatory cold treatment processes and precooling steps for specific periods (up to 25 days of cold treatment) before importation… before consignments are shipped.
</blockquote>
The CGA views the new regulations as drastic and misinformed. It said its management protocols have effectively protected against pests and diseases.
The new regulations will also virtually force South African growers to halt exporting organic and “chem-free” oranges, which are prone to chilling injury.
Joubert added that South Africa is currently engaging with its EU counterparts to reconsider the new regulations.
