Sousse Farmers' Union: Outages Cause Losses
The statements of the President of the Sousse Agricultural Union indicate that frequent power outages are causing significant losses for farmers and poultry breeders. Agricultural equipment such as pumps and well motors have been damaged, and drought coupled with rising temperatures has led to the destruction of fruit trees. Additionally, 5-6% of agricultural production has been lost, with some poultry breeders experiencing losses of up to 50% in their products. These breeders are also facing increased costs due to the extension of the chick fattening period and the need for ventilation, especially in hot climate conditions. The union has called on the relevant authorities to address the power outage issue and to raise purchasing prices in order to offset the rising costs.
