As our newspaper reported, the consequences of last Thursday’s storm were truly regrettable in a huge portion of the department. In this regard, Hugo Crescitelli, director of Municipal Districts, referred in dialogue with FM Vos (94.5) and with Diario San Rafael.
He recalled that on Thursday, since the arrival of the first clouds, they were in communication with the delegates of each district, making the first necessary assistance, for example through the liberation of streets and routes that were cut due to the presence of fallen trees. . “We have worked and on Friday we made a tour of what is Las Malvinas, part of Calle Larga, Villa Atuel, Las Aguaditas, La Llave, with the mayor seeing all the problems that this storm left,” he said, adding that they found farms with damage in production from 50% upwards, even exceeding 100%, as there are plants that will not have production for at least 2 or 3 years, taking into account that the wind and hail broke the shoots. “Unfortunately, the extension that has been damaged is a lot and in what is the Malvinas part, in horticulture, melons, watermelons, peppers, that was 100%. We went to see a farm in Villa Atuel, where unfortunately the vineyard is going to be 2 or 3 years without harvest or it will have to be uprooted, it is as if it had been eaten by horses. It is a pity because 23 families work on these farms, “he said, adding that” it will be necessary to fight it so that people continue to bet on the field, since in this case there were not only destruction in production, but also in houses, furniture, vehicles, etc., also due to flooding.
He asked that those who go to the delegations to look for nylon and do not find it, “to be patient because it will arrive.”
