Product Use |
Lemons are a citrus fruit tree native to Asia, specifically in the northeast regions of India. They are now widely cultivated in many warm and temperate regions around the world, including the Mediterranean, North and South America, and Australia. The main lemon-producing countries are India, China, Argentina, Turkey, and Brazil.
Lemons are usually harvested in the winter, but in some areas where the climate is milder, they can be harvested throughout the year. Special care is taken during harvesting to avoid damaging the fruit, as this can cause damage to its shelf life. They are usually hand-picked to ensure the best quality and to avoid damaging the delicate skin of the fruit.
After harvesting, lemons are washed and sorted for quality and size. The fruits are then transported to processing facilities, where they are washed again and waxed to protect the skin. Lemons are then sorted according to their weight and color before being packed for shipment to markets around the globe.
