Regular rains registered in Tahiti lime producing areas since mid-September have been gradually increasing the supply of this fruit. Thus, the Tahiti lime supply in October was slightly higher and it may increase more in November. The peak season is expected in December.
Due to the increasing supply, players surveyed by Cepea expect tahiti lime prices to move down in November, decreasing even more from December on.
