With this initiative, the fight against the pest remains active and actions to protect the natural environment will be extended.
The City Council of Pájara has developed for several months a fumigation plan to control the pest Diocalandra frumenti, which affects palm trees on the island. To date, more than 3,000 specimens have been sprayed, in a key intervention for the conservation of this natural resource.
The first deputy mayor and councilman of Parks and Gardens, Alexis Alonso, stresses the relevance of these tasks. “The municipal staff is developing a constant work to ensure the preservation of our palm grove, executing these actions continuously and planned in the coming months,” he says.
Likewise, the councilman clarifies that the fallen palm trees in the area of Solana Matorral did not show signs of plague or signs of deterioration. “It is important to emphasize that these specimens were healthy,” he says.
For his part, the mayor of Pájara, Alejandro Jorge, puts the focus on the institutional commitment to the natural environment. “The care of the natural environment is an essential pillar for the sustainable development of the municipality. These measures reflect the involvement of the Consistory with environmental protection and the welfare of our neighbors. We will continue to promote policies that preserve and improve our environment”.
These initiatives are part of a broader municipal planning aimed at responsible environmental management. The City Council will continue to promote specific measures that favor the health of the palm grove and reinforce the image of a municipality committed to sustainability and the quality of life of its citizens.
