Spain is the largest garlic producer in Europe, but there has been a 14% decrease in the area under garlic cultivation in 2024, with purple garlic making up less than 40% of the total cultivated area for the first time. This represents a contraction of over 30% in the past two years. Garlic sales are currently steady, and Spanish integrators are holding onto stocks. The European Union is mainly importing garlic from Egypt and Turkey, but the prices are high, resulting in low garlic imports this year.
