Porto Novo, Mar 31 (Inforpress) – Farmers in Ribeira dos Bodes, in the countryside of Porto Novo, have been experiencing “good production” of potatoes, tomatoes and other products, but express their concern about disposal of agricultural products.
Who says so is the local farmers spokesman, Henrique da Luz, who reported that this year the production of potatoes was good, despite the bad weather in this locality, as well as production of tomatoes and other surpluses.
This was due to the fact the boreholes in this agricultural area were “operating without any problems”, thanks to interventions made in pumping systems, in addition to the fact that the springs are still with “good water flow”, explained the same source.
Like farmers in other valleys, farmers in Ribeira dos Bodes reported they are concerned about disposal of agricultural products and are forced to sell surpluses at “a very low price”.
