    Rice Harvest - Seville

    Rice Harvest - Seville

    Rice seeds before harvesting, in the Guadalquivir marshes. On October 22, 2024, in Seville, Andalusia, Spain. Rice farmers in the Guadalquivir marshes have started harvesting this week after allowing a few days for the grain to dry out after the first autumn rains. Last year nothing could be sown and the previous one only 30% of the available hectares due to lack of water. This year has been different, the May rains helped the rice growers to sow 68% of the available area. This sowing was possible after learning that the Commission of the Guadalquivir Hydrographic Confederation (CHG) granted them an endowment of two thirds of the total maximum water they can obtain, that is, 264 cubic hectometers.
