El drama de Parral y Retiro: las dos comunas del Maule más golpeadas por el fenómeno del niño
In October, hailstorms struck two municipalities in the Linares Province, causing extensive damage. The severe weather broke fruit crops and left many farmers with ruined produce. Officials warned that the damaged vegetation could become vulnerable to fungal infections. Local producers have appealed for assistance to address the agricultural losses. They specifically asked the agricultural agency and banking institutions to freeze interest on existing credit lines. The request aims to prevent additional financial strain on the affected farming community.
