“The uncertainty and delays in the vegetable campaign are not encouraging growers to plant watermelon”
The first transplants of extra-early and early watermelons are already being carried out in the greenhouses of Almeria. "We have already been in touch and made the first agreements with our growers for the 2024 watermelon campaign, whose transplants are starting now, in the second half of December, and will continue until the end of February," said Luis Candil, from Agroalmanzora.
