Ebro Delta rice harvest and market challenges

Overview

In the Ebro Delta, the rice harvest has commenced early, approximately ten days ahead of schedule, due to high summer temperatures. While total production is expected to reach roughly 135,000 tons with high grain quality, producers are facing economic difficulties.

Market prices are projected to decline, with some reaching levels not seen in a decade. This price drop, alongside rising production costs such as gasoline, has led representatives from Unió de Pagesos to call for government intervention to protect food sovereignty.
