Catalan production 5% lower due to the drought
For Manel Simon, general manager of the Catalan Fruit Business Association (Afrucat), "the area affected by the Urgell canal basically produces apples and pears, the heart of stone fruit production is located in Baix Segre where right now irrigation is being carried out with restrictions that represent half of a normal year's supply".
