Cehegín Mayor Jose Soria, Councillor for Agriculture, Juan Antonio Chico, and OCA staff Caravaca, have visited the Nursery La Aparecida, where they have grown a total of 5,000 buts of flask, which will be distributed free to local farmers on request.
This is the second phase of the ambitious project being carried out Cehegín City Council, which aims to end the intensive cultivation of this fruit and obtaining its designation of origin.
With this many buts, funded by the Ministry of Agriculture of the Region of Murcia, we arrive at the amount of ten thousand units in Cehegín, which, according to Chico, "within 3 or 4 years will a production of about 250,000 kilos, which will allow us to apply DO. "
Once you get a considerable harvest of this product, it's time to schedule your sales and marketing, because, according to the mayor, "will not be sold everywhere, because we are talking about a high quality product."
