Answer

Can hail-damaged potatoes in Sa Pobla still be used or sold?

Some damaged produce may still be usable if it can be sorted and processed quickly, but not all farms have the storage or processing capacity to do that. In Sa Pobla, one proposed response is to use mobile collection and processing centers so damaged potatoes can be turned into longer-lasting products.
