The common size of a citrus packinghouse in Florida during the late 1970's had a capacity of 200,000 - 300,000 packed boxes per season. Florida currently has much bigger packinghouses. Today, some of the large packinghouses in in the state can pack up to 2.5 million boxes citrus in a year. These large scale operations reduce cost, and thus fruit price to be competitive. - Millet (1,183-)
