Initiative to salute, in Spain, COAG (Coordinadora de Organizaciones de Agricultores y Ganaderos) and Fecoam (Federación de Cooperativas Agrarias de Murcia) have offered their tractors and machines to the municipalities of the Region so that they can perform the fumigation tasks of the public spaces.
The organizations recalled that farmers have machines, used against various pests, which allow controlled fumigation. The municipalities of the Region are invited to contact the 2 organizations for assistance in the tasks they deem appropriate.
Currently no shortage is in sight, the winter vegetable campaign will last until May and the summer fruit and vegetable campaign is in preparation.
