When participating in a videoconference with producers last Saturday (04), the researcher of Epagri (Agricultural Research Company and Rural Extension of Santa Catarina), José Luiz Petri, pointed out that climatic factors, such as the milder winter, rains in the spring and the lack of rains, affected production, mainly of the Fuji variety.
For the next harvest, the expert evaluates that if the climate remains stable, without unexpected events such as frost or hail, the estimate is that the numbers improve.
