Limoneira's reported carbon emissions

In 2020, Limoneira reported carbon emissions of approximately 190 kg CO2e per tonne of lemons produced. This figure reflects the company's commitment to understanding and managing its environmental impact within the edible fruit and nuts sector.

Currently, Limoneira has not established formal reduction targets or initiatives, which suggests that while they are aware of their carbon footprint, they may need to enhance their climate commitments to align with industry standards.
