Key judgment

Item IdentityRutaceae Citrus family sweet orange core fruit
Key roleFresh fruit · Import distribution · Catering · Food service · Juicing · NFC · Concentrate · Puree · Marmalade · Food ingredients
Harvesting principleEvaluate variety, color, sugar content, acidity, juice content, firmness, and fresh/processing purpose together.
Product separationSeparate Fresh Fruit, Fresh-cut, Juice Ingredients, NFC, Concentrate, Purée, Marmalade, and Peel Product
Separation of similar itemsTangerines, Lemons, Limes, Grapefruits, and Yuzu are separate Product/Trade Entities
Domestic production statisticsNational statistical figures for the exclusive domestic commercial production of oranges were not verified in this v1.0 and will be verified later.
Domestic market structureItems requiring separate verification as the importance of Supply Containers for import, distribution, and processing is higher than domestic production.
Supply and demand riskOrigin, Country of Origin, Import Period, Variety, Exchange Rate, Logistics, Quarantine, Refrigeration, Fluctuation in Supply of Juicing Raw Materials
Quality RiskSkin damage, spoilage, dryness, juice content, sugar and acidity, seeds, internal quality
Processing riskJuice extraction yield · NFC/concentrate ingredient difference · peel · pith · seed by-products
Operating PrinciplesOrigin–Variety–Import/Harvest Lot–Quality–Cold-chain–Processing–Buyer
Final goalSupply capacity is evaluated based on the actual quantity conforming to buyer specifications and processing yield, rather than import statistics or fresh fruit sales volume.

According to the current pesticide residue tolerance standards on the Korea Food Safety website, individual standards take precedence over group standards when specific standards for individual agricultural products exist; for pesticides without separate standards, the limit of 0.01 mg/kg or less is applied in principle. For the actual orange lot, the current standards for each relevant pesticide must be checked again. ( Korea Food Safety website )

Since marmalade and confectionery products exist that directly utilize orange peels, lots utilizing peels must be verified separately from those using fresh fruit pulp for pesticide residues, washing, and the legality of the raw materials . The actual pesticides used are individually verified based on the current MRL system of Food Safety Korea. ( Food Safety Korea )
