În anii ’50, Campo de Dalias era o câmpie aridă. Acum, 33.000 de hectare de sere produc peste 4 milioane de tone de legume și fructe

In the 1950s, Campo de Dalias was a semi-arid area, but now it has transformed into a vast agricultural zone producing over four million tons of fruits and vegetables annually. This transformation, known as the 'Sea of Plastic,' covers approximately 33,000 hectares and has even influenced the local climate by reducing temperatures. Farmers utilized innovative techniques such as plastic covers, drip irrigation, and biological pest control to achieve this success. However, the agricultural boom has also led to challenges, including labor exploitation and environmental concerns related to plastic waste and water resources. Despite these issues, Almeria has become a significant contributor to Europe's food supply.
