UPA Andalucía calls for increased recruitment of South America laborers to meet the growing Huelva harvest demand, as only 3,800 new day labor positions are proposed.
- The Secretary of UPA Andalucía emphasized the urgent need for more day labor from South America to support the agricultural sector in Huelva.
- Current proposals for the GECCO contingent will only add 3,800 new positions, insufficient to meet the labor demands for the Fragaria fruit harvest in Palos de la Frontera.
- This push for labor recruitment highlights ongoing challenges within Andalusia agriculture, particularly in securing a reliable workforce to sustain production during peak seasons.
Por Qué Es Relevante
The call for more South America laborers reflects broader trends in agricultural labor shortages in Andalusia, impacting the regions economy and food production capabilities. Addressing these labor needs is crucial for sustaining the agricultural output, particularly for key products like Fragaria.
