The green asparagus harvest is progressing well<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The green asparagus harvest in Granada and Spain is progressing well. In at least eight provinces, including Granada, cooperatives and agricultural entities are operating at full capacity, and Spanish green asparagus is reaching both the national and international markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Granada, a harvest of 35 million kilos is anticipated, an estimated increase of between 10 and 15% compared to the previous year. The province is consolidating its position as a national and European leader in this crop, with 6,500 hectares representing more than 65% of the total green asparagus area in Spain, contributing nearly 60% of national production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Antonio Zamora, president of the Spanish Green Asparagus Interprofessional Association, emphasized that “this is the ideal time to consume asparagus grown in Spain.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Spanish Green Asparagus Interprofessional Association represents 96% of national production and 90% of sales. Its role is essential in channeling sector demands, fostering synergies, and optimizing sales, promoting a balanced value chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This organization includes the Granada Association of Cooperatives, the Agri-Food Cooperatives of Andalusia-Granada, UPA, COAG, ASAJA, the Guadalajara Green Asparagus Association, Aproa, Asociafruit, ES Andaluc\u00eda, and the Regulatory Council of the Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) Hu\u00e9tor T\u00e1jar Asparagus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This structure includes farmers, production companies, and marketing companies, many of them cooperatives, distributed throughout the Andalusian provinces of Granada, Malaga, Seville, Cadiz, Ja\u00e9n, and C\u00f3rdoba, as well as in Castilla-La Mancha, mainly in Guadalajara, and Extremadura.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
