Many would answer Spain when asked where most European oranges come from. That answer is correct, as in the region around the South Spanish city of Valencia, there are countless orange trees (Citrus sinensis) as far as the eye can see.
Albania is a country where orange cultivation is rapidly growing. Figures from 2018 show that the country ranked seventh in Europe in terms of the area of orange orchards, which is a remarkable achievement for one of the smallest countries in Europe. However, in just one year, the country’s area increased by 50% to reach 300 hectares. It is expected that production will continue to increase significantly due to Albania’s perfect climate and proximity to European export markets.
The fruit changes color during ripening from green to orange. Oranges are actually winter fruits and need cooler weather to develop their characteristic orange color. As the orange ripens on the tree, it produces chlorophyll. This allows the orange to absorb energy from sunlight. Cold nights cause the fruit to lose the green-pigmented chlorophyll and develop a deeper orange color, similar to leaves on a tree in autumn. If you come across an orange with a green tint, it doesn’t mean it’s not ripe. When the weather warms up in late spring and early summer, citrus tends to turn green again to protect itself from sunburn.

The Albanian olive harvest is severely impacted by a labor shortage, leading to a significant decline in olive oil production and exports. In the first nine months of 2024, exports dropped by 60% compared to the same period in 2023.
