Xylella fastidiosa is a pathogen that poses a serious threat to agri-food systems. An insect-borne bacterium that eventually causes trees to dry out and die, it was first detected in Spain in 2016, alarming the farming community. Although it is more commonly associated with olive trees, it also inflicts heavy losses on almond crops.
