This year, the weather was good and productivity per hectare reached a record level. "We are currently at 94 metric tonnes per hectare," explained Rafael Rezende Santana, an agronomist with Abratop, the Brazilian association of operators of the tomato processing industry. According to him, the usual average is approximately 80 mT/ha. The high yields have made a difference to the revenue of growers. Some of them, particularly in the South-West of the State of Goiás, reached productivity levels that are significantly higher (111 mT/ha) than the national average, including on the widest expanses of planted surfaces.
