It can be stored for about 6 to 8 weeks at 100C. Lemon is considered a versatile fruit, as it can be used in many ways to enhance human health. It is a very rich source of vitamin C, which is beneficial for our body. Citrus is native to a large area, which extends from Himalayan foot hills of northeast India to north central China, the Philippines in east and Burma, Thailand, Indonesia and New Caledonia in Southeast. In India, in terms of area under cultivation, citrus is the third largest fruit crop after Banana and Mango. The average yield of citrus fruits in India is alarmingly low (8.8 t/ha) compared to other developed countries like Indonesia, Turkey, Brazil and USA. India exports its lemons mostly to Arab countries, like Oman or UAE. “Since distances are not great and Gujarat has a good amount of ports, which makes exporting to these countries very easy.
