In addition to apples, the source stated that 200 tons of pears were also produced, in a harvesting process that began in December.<\/p>\n<p>She stated that there is no total production area, because each family has between 10 and 150 fruit trees on their land, in a production carried out by farms and farming families.<\/p>\n<p>Data from the Hui\u0301la Farming and Fisheries Office indicate that the province produced 3,903 tons of fruit in the 2022\/2023 campaign, and in the following campaign, 2023\/2024, this production reached 6,943 tons, not counting the commercial harvest, with a good part coming from Humpata.<\/p>\n<p>The Humpata plateau is located at an altitude of 2,000 to 2,300 meters and has a temperate climate. Agriculture, especially the production of tropical fruits, tourism and livestock farming are its main economic activities.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ap-article-footer-note\">Find more news and analyses on <span class=\"ap-highlight-country\">Angola<\/span> on the <span class=\"ap-highlight-brand\">Africa Press<\/span> website<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Angola.
