citrus farms

Lemon and lime groves

Citrus farms are agricultural operations that grow citrus fruits—oranges, lemons, limes, grapefruits, and related crops.

The term appears in discussions of agriculture, land use, and regional economies: Citrus farms in Florida were devastated by the freeze.

Large-scale citrus farming is called citriculture.
