Understanding the Season of Lemon: A Comprehensive Overview
Lemons, originally native to Southeast Asia and Northeast India, thrive in various climates, making them a versatile fruit in global cuisine and lemon industry. Lemons are grown throughout the year and are a staple in kitchens and cleaning products due to their high citric acid content, which gives them a distinct tartness.
The Global Landscape of Lemon Production
According to the FAO, India produces 16% of the world's lemons, followed by Mexico, China, and Argentina. Turkey ranks sixth in lemon production, with the Mediterranean region, including cities like Mersin, Hatay, and Antalya, being key areas for cultivation.
Ideal Growing Conditions for Lemons
Lemons prefer temperate and warm climates. In Turkey, the Mediterranean climate is perfect for lemon cultivation. Lemon trees need temperatures above 0°C, as they can be damaged by frost at -6°C or lower. They also require temperatures not exceeding 45°C to avoid growth issues. Ideal soil for lemon trees includes well-drained, humus-rich, clay-loam or sandy-loam soils with a pH between 5.5 and 6.0. Proper spacing of 7x7 meters between trees is recommended, with soil preparation and plowing done during the dry season in September.
Lemon Harvest Seasons and Varieties
Lemons are typically harvested in autumn, specifically in September, October, and November. However, harvest times can vary based on the lemon variety:
- Eureka: Common in Spain, South Africa, Australia, Argentina, and California, harvested from late winter to summer.
- Lisbon: Originating from Australia, more cold-tolerant than Eureka, harvested in winter and spring.
- Interdonato: Originating from Sicily, Turkey is the leading producer, with harvest in September and October.
- Karalimon: Highly productive, grown in Antalya, harvested from November to January.
- Cyprus: Harvest begins in mid-November, with fewer seeds and suitable for forced ripening.
- Meyer: Thought to be a hybrid of lemon and mandarin or orange, with smooth yellow-orange skin, harvested starting in September.
- Kutdiken: Known for superior fruit quality, stored for up to 9 months, grown in Mersin and Hatay, harvested from November to February.
- Molla Mehmet: Widely grown around Mersin, providing consistent fruit yield.
