In 2020, Limoneira, headquartered in the US, reported carbon emissions of approximately 190 kg CO2e per tonne of lemons produced. This figure reflects the carbon intensity associated with their operations in the edible fruit and nuts sector, specifically for citrus fruits. Currently, there are no disclosed reduction targets or climate pledges from Limoneira, indicating a potential area for future commitment to sustainability and emissions reduction. The absence of specific Scope 1, 2, or 3 emissions data suggests that further transparency in their carbon footprint could enhance their climate strategy. As the industry increasingly prioritises climate action, Limoneira's future initiatives may benefit from establishing clear reduction goals and engaging in broader sustainability practices to align with global climate commitments.
