Recent heavy rains in Extremadura, Spain, have significantly damaged the stone fruit campaign, especially cherry crops to the north of Cáceres, with the 'picota' harvest almost completely lost. The UPA-UCE Extremadura farming organization has criticized recent changes to cherry insurance, leading to fewer policies and lower payouts, and has called for adjustments and more support for producers. The campaign also faces a 40% decrease in plum production due to issues during flowering and fruit set, while peach and nectarine production is expected to remain stable. The organization also emphasizes the need for higher, market-reflective prices for contracts, especially for cherries, and is concerned about the lack of workers for the fruit harvest.
