Spain's Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food (MAPA) has reported a rise in stone fruit production in the country, attributed to a surge in plantations and the high number of young plantations. The report, titled 'Analysis of the productive reality of stone fruit 2020', reveals a 4% decrease in the total surface area dedicated to stone fruit crops in 2020 compared to the previous year, although not all categories saw a decline. The area under cherry, Paraguayan, and platerina cultivation increased, with a significant portion of these plantations being under five years old. Conversely, the area for apricot, peach, nectarine, and plum production saw a decline, with shifts in cultivation towards certain varieties. Regional data showed variations in the growth of stone fruit cultivation across Spain.
