Overview: 

Algeria’s Citrus Belt & the Agricultural Push in Tlemcen

Tlemcen, a fertile province in northwestern Algeria, is one of the country’s most vital citrus-producing regions, renowned for its production of oranges, mandarins, and lemons. As Algeria expands its agricultural export capacity, citrus farming is emerging as a key contributor to the country's GDP and employment. But to scale sustainably and export competitively, farmers and agribusinesses must shift from manual tracking to data-driven farm management.

That’s where Odoo ERP steps in—providing end-to-end visibility across citrus production, from planting and pesticide use to harvest, packaging, and traceability.

Operating a citrus farm in Algeria, particularly in Tlemcen, requires:

• Land access or ownership, preferably near irrigated valleys or river plains
  
  
• Compliance with the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development (MADR) guidelines
  
  
• Access to planting material, fertilizers, and pesticides
  
  
• Skilled labor or agronomists for crop monitoring and pruning cycles
  
  
• Systems for harvest planning, cold storage, and transport to market/export hubs
  
  
• Documentation and traceability records for domestic and international compliance
  
  
• Budget for digital systems to manage operations, especially for farms above 10 hectares
  
  

These components can be overwhelming without the right ERP solution to centralize and automate them.
