The farmers should blame their Government for not providing alternative employment. If the oranges and grapes are strategically/culturally important, the Gov can again buy it a floor price and sell for cheap. Either way, farmers will lose out on some of the rents, but hey, everyone else benefits from cheaper fruit from abroad in this scenario.
Btw, the West has done this with their ag sector to the third world. Displacing exports of global south with their own which have greater productivity (lower price) and subsidized on top. Except, global south countries have little policy space to counter the impact on local output and employment thanks to IMF/self-imposed neoliberal rules.
