On May 18, 2021, a workshop was held in Catalonia, Spain, with pine nuts producers, entrepreneurs, and other relevant stakeholders of the pine nut value chain, with the main aim of identifying most relevant barriers for pine nut producers, harvesters and sellers, and innovative solutions to overcome these barriers.
During the workshop, the Wildfood project was presented, in an introductory phase, and after that, Míriam Piqué presented the map of stakeholders in the pine nuts value chain and a SWOT analysis, both being the bases for discussing the most important problems to be addressed. One of the biggest challenges identified during the meeting was the issue of pinecones robbery and the need of a legal frame review and the creation of a producer’s association.
This workshop was carried out in collaboration with Quality pinea project.
