Citrus Tree Health and Yields Study
Katrina Moseley, a UF Food and Resource Economics graduate student, completed her MS degree in the Spring of 2010. Ms Moseley wrote a thesis analyzing the effect of mechanical harvesting on citrus tree health and fruit yield. Her results indicated that mechanical harvesting did not create an adverse near-term nor long-term effect on yields. A paper from Katrina’s thesis was co-authored by her advisors, Fritz Roka and Lisa House, and was published in the International Food and Agribusiness Management Review. The paper is available on the Citrus Harvesting website: http://citrusmh.ifas.ufl.edu. The author’s intro video is available to watch on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NyI6-jKIfoo.
