Damage To Agriculture In Puglia

Cia Puglia is raising the alarm about damage to cherry farming due to bad weather that is causing the phenomenon of 'cracking' in cherries, a physiopathy that causes the skin to crack. Puglia holds the national record of cultivated hectares, quantities produced and quality expressed for the cherry. The Bari metropolitan area alone produces more than 40 percent of the national product and more than 90 percent of the entire region.
