CASTELLAR (Agencies/Photo: TioJimeno) What was once the largest estate in Europe, La Almoraima, has anounced operating losses of €1.7 million for 2009. This is below their forecast, which amounted to €2 million. Expecations for the current year amounts to a loss of €610,000, and €228.000 for 2011. The reason given by the management of the nationalised estate is that the cork market has suffered enormously since 2008 and the figures are 'dragging' since then.
