The Unió de Pagesos agricultural union is projecting a significant decrease in pear production by 60% for the current campaign, attributing the decline to the adverse effects of drought and heat waves in the previous year. These conditions were responsible for hindering the formation of flowers necessary for the current harvest. This has resulted in substantial financial losses for farmers, estimated to be 8,255 euros per hectare, due to both the reduced yield and increased production costs. The union is calling for support and compensation for these economic losses, which they believe may exceed the department's estimates of a 39% average loss over the past five years. They also emphasize the need for an accurate assessment of the production loss to facilitate adjustments in taxation and explore potential aid for the sector.
