In February, it is expected to pay compensation of around 200 euros/acre (ie more than 5 million euros) to 1,778 producers of the prefectures of Florina, Trikala, Pieria, Pella, Imathia, Thessaloniki, Kilkis and Larissa, who stated that they have stated that they were signed. They found in a total of 26,730.2 acres of distorted peaches and nectarines. This is pointed out by speaking to the Athens/Macedonian News Agency, the President of the National Interprofessional Organization of Nuclear Caps (EDOP), Christos Giannakakis, Vice President of the National Union of Agricultural Cooperatives (ETHEA). Noting that the infringement of the nucleus is attributed to a combination of viruses that are not “cured” in a medicinal way, it expresses his strong concern about what is to come.

Certainly, as he typically says, the compensation of producers is a highly positive development, as well as the fact that there will be about 15m euros to restructure the affected acres with peaches and nectarines “all those involved in the chain of these nuclear regions. in great concern about cultivation, as no one excludes and so we do not know if we will see New deformities in 2025what extent the insults will have … “.

Referring to the uprootings that producers who wish and declared distortions in peaches and nectarines on their land, Mr. Giannakakis notes that “the eradication process will be done in accordance with the Benakeio Phytopathological Institute and the Institutes of the Institute and those who are finally integrated into the program. They should proceed with new tree crops. “

Those who join the restructuring program that will be made by amending the Rural Development Program (RDP) of the Ministry of Rural Development and Food and relates to about 15 million euros in total, will essentially receive about 1,600 euros/acre to proceed with their new Rural/Rural/ cultivation venture.

In Pella the biggest problem – followed by Imathia and Larissa

The analysis of the data stated on acres where nuclearves are cultivated (peaches, nectarines, apricots and plums), it appears that the biggest problem is found in the prefecture of Pella, where 1,304 producers said they found alterations at 20.809.

Following is the Prefecture of Imathia, where 429 growers stated that they found deformed kernels in 5,233.8 acres, ie 1,160 parcels, followed by Larissa with the corresponding numbers formed in 17 producers, 287 acres and 37 parcels.

In the prefecture of Kilkis, the final results of the electronic platform that created and “ran” at the initiative of the EDOP, show 12 growers who said they found deformities in kernels in 184.5 acres, namely 26 parcels. In the prefecture of Thessaloniki, eight producers declared 113.6 acres, ie 21 parcels.

In the prefecture of Pieria, four growers stated that they found deformities in 43.4 acres, that is, 11 parcels, in that of Florina three producers in 52 acres, namely seven parcels and Trikala, one in 6.5 acres, that is, two parcels.

The history of the insult

The phenomenon of the infringement and deformation of the Rodakines and Nectarines first appeared in 2021 in a 10 -acre parcel in Pella vineyards. However, within three years it was alarmingly spread, and while initially estimated that a total of 5,000 acres had been infected with Pella and Imathia, eventually, the final data from the electronic platform “speak” of multiple extent, ie 26,730.2 acres. “The phenomenon is extremely dangerous and must be tackled properly and disciplined in order to avoid a major blow to the cultivation and income of agricultural households,” he points out.

It is recalled that the National Interprofessional Nuclear Organization (EDOP), from the beginning of the problem with the deformity of nucleari, created and “ran” an electronic platform, gathering all the elements that “left” on a weekly basis. It is recalled that the farmers who found this problem in their parcels visited the KDP in which they had submitted the IACS statement of 2023 and demanded the printing of a form in which only the crops of the Rodakines and Nectarines appeared in detail. On this form in a special column, the number of trees of each parcel that occurred the problem was completed. At the bottom of the form was signed by producers and agronomists and the relative stamp was also entering. The form was subsequently submitted to the KYP, registered on the special electronic platform and a photocopy of it was delivered to the producer.
