食品伙伴網(wǎng)訊 據(jù)外媒報(bào)道,多雨的夏天、遲到的秋日,意大利的糟糕的天氣導(dǎo)致今年的橄欖產(chǎn)量大幅下降。意大利一家農(nóng)民協(xié)會(huì)表示,2014年意大利整體的橄欖油產(chǎn)量將下滑,每瓶價(jià)格有可能上漲2英鎊,部分地區(qū)的產(chǎn)量下降幅度甚至?xí)哌_(dá)80%。
多雨的夏日導(dǎo)致害蟲叢生,“橄欖果實(shí)蠅”(Bactrocera oleae)肆虐,造成許多果實(shí)腐爛變質(zhì)。
部分原文報(bào)道如下:
The price of olive oil is set to soar after a widespread failure of the annual harvest in large parts of Italy.
A wet summer in combination with a fruit fly blight has led to some producers not harvesting at all this year.
The price is expected to rise by ?2 a bottle after production fell by up to 80 per cent in some areas of Italy, a farmers' cooperative said.
Silvio Bandinelli of the Tuscan Olive Growers Coop said: 'The new oil will cost 2-3 euro more per litre compared to last year, or an average of 10 euro a litre.
Some producers have decided not produce extra virgin because the flavour of the oil will be too acidic.
