The heat is affecting the development of the bulbs, but it is still early for white and yellow onions - most of the produce will in fact be ready starting from late July.
"In particular, early yellow onions are slightly bigger than the white varieties. Demand is quite low at the moment. It started early, so much so that prices were satisfactory and we 'forced' harvesting, but now it has calmed down."
As far as potatoes are concerned, Davide says; "We started harvesting one week ago, and quality and colour are better than expected."
