USDA ORANGE JUICE YIELD ESTIMATE
The U.S. Agriculture Department
projected an average yield of 1.47 gallons of frozen
concentrated orange juice per box (42.0 degree brix equivalent)
from Florida's 1986/87 crop.
    That compares with 1.46 gallons per box previously and 1.38
gallons per box from the 1985/86 crop.
    The crop reporting board said the estimates for the 1986/87
season are based on maturity and yields tests as of March 1.
