Italian onion harvest starts with lower yield due to drought
The onion harvest in the southern Italian province of Bari is underway and it appears that yields are already declining.

We needed rain in April and May, not now," said Vito Abrusci, director of the growers' association La Vera Cipolla Rossa di Acquaviva delle Fonti.
