Wage protest paralyzes lemon harvest in Tucumán A protest against wages paralyzes the lemon harvest in Tucuman Workers block routes and access to farms and packing plants The lemon campaign has been hampered in Tucuman, which accounts for 80% of Argentina s total lemon production, due to the wage conflict between workers in the sector and the Argentine Union of Rural Workers and Longshoremen (Uatre). On Wednesday, a group of workers blocked for the third consecutive day different roads of the province and the access to farms and facilities, preventing the passage of trucks that transport citrus fruits, to show their rejection to the 40.6% salary increase agreed in March between Uatre and the Citrus Association of the Argentine Northwest (Acnoa). The workers argue that the salary was only increased by 25%, as the remaining 15% corresponded to an increase that had been achieved in 2020.
