Abstract
In Spain, peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] production has experienced an increase of ≈30% during the past 20 years [Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Environment (MAPAMA), 2021]. In 2018, the total peach cultivated surface area was ≈50,000 ha, with the majority of peach production located in Ebro Valley, northeastern Spain. Aragon and Catalonia are the two most important Spanish peach regions within Ebro Valley, producing ≈430,000 and 409,000 tons annually, respectively (MAPAMA, 2021). Spain is the leading European peach producer and the world’s largest exporter, with a crop value of almost USD 1 billion.
