also stressed that the asparagus is still colonizing new areas.
"While True, many are still removing old asparagus and are replaced by other crops, new irrigated areas mainly in the Ica region are still planted by asparagus "he said.
On the other hand, said that after an excellent season finale, low temperatures in the Ica region tend to present the "Spring Fever", which will result in a slow shoot growth and delayed production the vine.
