The Citrus Academy has launched a new website called The Citrus Resource Warehouse - an online storage space housing a variety of documents sourced either directly from the public domain, or stored with the permission of the original sources.

Funded by the CGA, the online warehouse covers topics relevant and pertaining to the Southern African citrus industry, and allows for all documents to be downloaded in pdf format.

Bahle Kweba is featured in SRCC's 'Transformation Times' April 2016 newsletter. Bahle was on the Citrus Academy Bursary Fund in 2013. He then went on to intern at SRCC, and has worked his way up the ranks to Assistant Production Manager in their Primary Production Department.

Over the last three months, the Citrus Academy has hosted 11 Citrus Emergent Export Excellence workshops around South Africa - namely in Thohoyandou, Letsitele, Hoedspruit, Groblersdal, Nelspruit, Patensie, Fort Beaufort, Addo, Pietermaritzburg and Kakamas.

The Citrus Business Management Programme (CBM) was held at the Mpofu Training Centre in Fort Beaufort, in the Eastern Cape, over an intensive seven month period beginning mid-September last year.

During the last week of November, twenty-four young people from around the country gathered at Seula Zimbili on the banks of the Tugela River in Zululand to take part in the Citrus Academy's Ready-Steady-Work programme.
