    "According to the data collected so far, the panhellenic Hayward production will increase by about 30%, with respective increases in each production area. There is, of course, the Arta case, where the increase will be less, around 20%, since there were hailstorms that had a considerable impact on the crop. This applies also to the Soreli crop in Arta. However, there will be a satisfactory Soreli crop volume, while the fruit calibers will mostly be small, mainly 30, 33 and 36. On the other hand,
