Nabeul tomato crops hit by outages
The current tomato season in Nabeul Governorate, Tunisia, shows significant impact due to frequent power outages. These outages have caused tomato processing units to halt operations and have led to a decline in product quality, resulting in severe losses for farmers, especially with rising temperatures accelerating crop spoilage. Urgent calls from farmers and relevant authorities are urging immediate intervention to ensure continuous electricity supply to factories and prevent further production damage. It is expected that production will drop to approximately 247,000 tons out of the national total estimated at 800,000 tons, with cultivated areas decreasing to around 15,000 hectares nationwide.
