Garlic planting in Spain has seen a significant decrease, with a 8% drop in 2023 and a total decrease of 23% over the past three years, according to recent data. The decline is even more pronounced in specific regions such as Andalusia, Madrid, and Castilla-La Mancha, with the total sown area decreasing by 30%. The Garlic Roundtable has identified several factors contributing to this trend, including low profitability, labour shortages, increased land rental costs, water access issues, and loss of phytosanitary control tools. The situation is further complicated by the lack of phytosanitary products for broadleaf weed and disease control, leading to higher production costs and a more significant increase in garlic imports from non-EU countries. Despite market price increases, the rising production costs have made garlic less competitive, potentially leading to a stagnation in sowing prospects for the next campaign.
