GARLIC CAMPAIGN IN CHILE

The garlic campaign in Chile is an important time for the country's agricultural sector. Garlic is one of the main vegetables grown in Chile and is produced mainly in the Maule region, in the center of the country. The garlic season begins in October and runs through March, although some crops may be available year-round thanks to seasonal garlic production and bulb storage techniques.

Garlic is a crop of great economic importance for Chile, since it is exported to various countries in Latin America and the rest of the world. Chilean garlic is known for its high quality and characteristic flavor, which makes it very popular among consumers.

The production of garlic in Chile is carried out mainly in a traditional way, using cultivation techniques that have been used for centuries. Although some more modern production techniques are also used, such as drip irrigation and the use of plastics to protect the bulbs from the sun and rain.

Currently, the garlic campaign in Chile is facing some challenges due to increasing competition from other garlic-producing countries and fluctuating prices in the international market. However, garlic remains an important crop for the country and its production remains an important source of employment and income for many Chilean farmers.
