Castile and Leon expect good potato productions this season
Castile and Leon have an estimated 17,331 hectares devoted to potato crops, according to the data provided by the Junta. This is 1,041 hectares less than last year, and a 5.6% drop in the community, which had already experienced a 4% reduction in area in 2020. However, this decrease was smaller than expected, stated Yolanda Medina, president of the Interprofessional Organization of the Potato (Oipacyl).
Medina highlighted the role of weather in the crops. The first plantings took place in the last three weeks of March, especially in the provinces of Zamora, Salamanca, and Valladolid, with a suitable temperature and good soil preparation, unlike last year. The rains in April delayed the sowing until the 20th of that month and it lasted until mid-May.

Spain asks Europe to make sure Morocco complies with the terms of their trade agreement
The Secretary-General of Agriculture and Food, Fernando Miranda, stated that the Government of Spain had asked the European Commission to make sure Morocco complies with the terms of their trade agreement.
Last week the Interprofessional Organization of Fruits and Vegetables of Andalusia (Hortyfruta) warned of a severe alteration of the European tomato market caused by an oversupply due to the uncontrolled entry of tomatoes from third countries into the EU. It also demanded a real vigilance of the quotas and greater control on entry prices, in particular, of the Moroccan tomato.
