Fruits and
Vegetables

The southwest of France, with its fertile soils and diverse climate, is a cradle for high-quality fruit and vegetable production, blending tradition and innovation to meet the demands of both local and international markets 

In the regions of Occitanie and Nouvelle-Aquitaine, the main fruit and vegetable cultivations are diverse and renowned for their quality. In Occitanie, key crops include cherries, notably from the Lot department, and strawberries, particularly from the Tarn-et-Garonne. The region also produces significant quantities of tomatoes, peppers, and melons. Nouvelle-Aquitaine is famous for its apples from Limousin, Agen prunes from Lot-et-Garonne, and Charentais melons from Charente. The region also excels in walnut production, particularly Périgord walnuts from Dordogne, and is known for its pink garlic from Tarn. These regions benefit from favorable climatic conditions and fertile soils, making them ideal for varied and high-quality agricultural production
