Citrus greening, along with substantial supply chain disruptions caused by the pandemic, climate change, and unusual weather patterns, has created challenges for raw goods, including rising costs for edible oils. This poses a significant threat due to the widespread use of citrus ingredients in many products.

The "Navigating Regulations & Rising Prices in Citrus Oils" panel is set for day two, October 9, of Flavorcon 2024 (www.flavorcon.com). We've enlisted panelists to weigh in on woes in the citrus segment. The panel discussion will focus on the impact on the industry and how flavorists and flavor houses can address these critical global issues by exploring alternative natural solutions.

Highlights from this panel will be covered in the December 2024 issue of Perfumer & Flavorist+.
