El Poal (in Catalan; Valencian pronounced as /el poˈal/) is a village of Pla d'Urgell, Catalonia, Spain.
El Poal is approximately located five miles south from Mollerussa, capital of the region, specifically along the shore of the Urgell Canal. El Poal borders on Linyola to the north, Palau d’Anglesola to the south, Vila-sana to the east and Bellvís to the west.
Throughout this fertile plain irrigated crops such as fodder, maize, cereals and fruit trees are cultivated. The economy of the village is complemented by stockbreeding. Minor occupation is focused on industry and services.
