Bird's foot delta? edit

This was taught to me as being a typical bird's-foot delta, but there's no mention as such in the article. Unless this typology has since fallen out of favour, shouldn't this be mentioned? 82.25.233.216 (talk) 13:55, 4 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Agricultural expansion edit

Over numerous unplanned edits, I gradually made a fairly significant addition to the agriculture section.

The Rice-producing Cooperative of the Ebro Delta accounts for a production capacity of 45 thousand tonnes of rice annually, from 14 varietals,[6] cultivated on 22,000 hectares.[7] Compared to the major Spanish rice-producing regions of Andalusia and Extremadura, yields in the Ebro Delta are more consistent, due to a stable water supply.[8]

Since 1992, the Ebro Delta is one of three Spanish regions awarded a Protected Designation of Origin for rice production.[9] "The designation includes six varieties: bahía, bomba, fonsa, montsianell, sènia and tebre, grown exclusively in the towns of Aldea, Ampolla, Amposta, Camarles, Deltebre, Sant Carles de la Ràpita and Sant Jaume d'Enveja."[7]

As you can see, I added four distinct sources, although none of these is first class (most lack authors, dates, and have uncertain revision policies). But these are fairly banal pickings and not subject to much controversy.

Note that I lifted an entire sentence (attributed) from one source, because its hard to paraphrase, consisting almost entirely of two substantive lists, both in unadorned, alphabetical order.

I'm not likely at this point to return to this article, so edit as you will. — MaxEnt 20:44, 18 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
