Hello, I moved ports folder to another place, for example to /home/data/ports.
After that I added few lines to /usr/local/etc/pkgtools.conf

  ENV['PORTSDIR'] ||= '/home/data/ports'

Also, I try to add the following line to /etc/make.conf

  PORTSDIR=/home/data/ports

Portupgrade worked with /home/data/ports till /usr/ports was in system, but
when I delete /usr/ports, I received the following output:

ira at sunlark:/home/data % portupgrade
cd: /usr/ports: No such file or directory
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0/pkgtools/portsdb.rb:237:in `join': no
implicit conversion of nil into String (TypeError)
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0/pkgtools/portsdb.rb:237:in

        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0/pkgtools/portsdb.rb:167:in

        from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:530:in `block in main'
        from /usr/local/lib/ruby/2.0/optparse.rb:885:in `initialize'
        from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:237:in `new'
        from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:237:in `main'
        from /usr/local/sbin/portupgrade:2376:in `<main>'

To resolve this problem, I edit
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.0/pkgtools/portsdb.rb 

line 214:     
- @ports_dir = new_ports_dir || ENV['PORTSDIR'] || '/usr/ports'
+ @ports_dir = new_ports_dir || ENV['PORTSDIR'] || '/home/data/ports'

it helps for me.
