The temperate climate in our country is the Mediterranean climate. Although the home of lemon is India, our country is also cultivated in the Mediterranean Region. It grows almost everywhere in the region. The provinces where lemon is produced the most and the highest quality are Mersin and Hatay. Like all citrus fruits, the leading desire of the lemon tree is to grow in a warm climate. Where lemon trees are grown, it is best not to drop the air temperature below 0 degrees. Because at temperatures below -8, -9 degrees, lemon trees freeze and die. The highest temperatures it cannot withstand are 45 degrees and above.

The development of lemon trees starts at a temperature of 12 degrees. On average, 23 degrees is the temperature at which lemon develops the fastest. After 37-39 degrees, the development of the lemon tree stops. Cold or hot winds adversely affect lemon trees. It is useful to establish windbreakers against the prevailing winds in the region. In addition, lemon trees are affected by the humidity of the air where they are located. Low humidity also affects the growth and yield of lemon trees.
