We recently shared a post here and one of our followers raised a very valid concern, that in the next couple of years, pixie oranges might get saturated in the market and the prices will drop drastically.
But we look at it a little differently.
The market rarely rewards quantity alone—it also rewards quality. Farmers who consistently produce clean, sweet, well-sized fruits will always have an advantage over those who don't.
Pixie oranges remain one of the most sought-after citrus varieties because consumers love their sweetness. Even if more farmers plant them, demand for quality fruit is likely to remain strong.
Our advice is not to focus on how many trees everyone else is planting, but on how well you manage your orchard. Good agronomic practices, proper nutrition, pest and disease control, and smart marketing will always put a farmer in a stronger position.
After all, Kenya's population is growing, fruit consumption is increasing, and quality fruit is never easy to find in surplus.
