Rain and mild temperatures: in Sinnai the almond trees bloom in January

Almond trees in bloom well in advance in the countryside of Sinnai and the entire hinterland of Cagliari up to Selargius Quartucciu, Maracalagonis and Monserrato.

The great autumn rains and the spring temperatures of these days have favored the event, with the countryside now colored by flowers and with the scents that are felt in the air.

A phenomenon that has been repeated for years now, a consequence of climatic variations.

Until a few decades ago, the flowering of trees took place in late February and March. Now even in mid-January.

With all the risks for the crop. Frosts now represent the real concern of the people of the fields even if it must be said that the mandoleate area is now reduced to a minimum: the old plants have not been renovated with the countryside becoming more and more a desert, abandoned to their fate. . Sign of a very heavy crisis.
