Texas citrus is synonymous with red grapefruit, and with good reason, since the quality and beauty of red grapefruit grown in the Rio Grande Valley is unrivaled. During this presentation, Dr. David Laughlin, assistant professor at the Texas A&M University Kingsville Citrus Center, will talk about the origins of grapefruit and how it came to be established as the flagship of citrus in Texas. How and where grapefruit is grown and harvested will be presented.
