About agriculture in Pyrgion

Pyrgion, also known as Pyrgi, is situated in the southern part of Chios island within the North Aegean region of Greece. The settlement is part of the famous Mastic Villages and is surrounded by a rugged yet fertile landscape of rolling hills and coastal valleys. The Mediterranean climate and stony soil create a unique environment that defines the rural character of the area.

The agricultural backbone of the region is the production of mastic resin, which is unique to this specific part of Chios. In addition to the extensive mastic groves, the area is known for its high-quality olive oil production and citrus orchards. Small-scale livestock farming, primarily sheep and goats, is also integrated into the local agricultural system, making use of the hilly terrain for grazing.

For agronomists and seasonal farm workers, Pyrgion offers specific employment opportunities tied to the mastic harvest cycle, which typically runs from July through September. During this period, labor is needed for cleaning the ground, wounding the trees, and collecting the resin. Winter months bring additional demand for olive harvesting and pruning, providing a variety of manual and technical agricultural roles throughout the year.
