No offense, but from one of your replies I gather that you are not perfectly fluent in French. I am neither - however, I think your "interpretation" of "Arrêt des prélèvements agricoles" might not be correct.

I think it means "stop on withdrawals (of water) for agriculture", and not "stop of withdrawal of agricultural products". I admit, though, that the text is ambiguous. "Prélèvement" can mean "withdrawal of something" or "sample".

In general I agree with the views of your posts. However, I would not go as far as you claim here. Forbidding the harvesting of products - that seems a bit too extreme.

I found an email address at the specified site, and to clarify this issue, I took it upon myself to mail the department responsible for the leaflet ([email protected]), with this message:

Dans le prospectus ici

https://www.pyrenees-orientales.gouv.fr/contenu/telechargement/38142/303582/file/4_plaquette_crise_juin_2023.pdf

c'est écrit (en bas à gauche): Arrêt des prélèvements agricoles

Apparemment, il y a des personnes qui soutiennent que ça veut dire qu'il est interdit de prélever/cueillier/récolter des produits agricoles.

Selon mon opinion ce n'est pas correct, votre text veut dire que c'est interdit de prélever de l'eau pour arroser de produits agricoles.

Veuillez m'expliquer le contexte de la phrase en question.

(Translation:

In the flyer here it says (bottom left: [...] Apparently, some people claim that this means that it is forbidden to take/pick/harvest agricultural products.
In my opinion this is not correct, your text means that it is forbidden to take water for watering agricultural products.
Please explain the context of the sentence in question.)

And the reply was:

Il s'agit évidemment du prélèvement en eau qui est limité, comme le titre du prospectus l'indique,
Nous n'interdisons aucunement de cueillir des fruits.

(Translation: "Of course, as the title of the prospectus indicates, water harvesting is limited.
We in no way forbid fruit picking.")
