Climate change is much more than social media trending news: it is the harsh reality farmers and agricultural entrepreneurs have to deal with every day.
\nAnd the damages are as harsh and real, resulting in millions of euros of loss.
\nDue to the swing of temperatures that led to a sudden rise followed by a collapse in degrees, the vegetative awakening of peaches, cherries, apricots, almonds and hazelnuts took place in advance. Now, buds and flowers are likely to be burned by frost due to the abrupt drop in temperatures suddenly arrived after weeks of exceptionally high averages.
\nAnd if spring crops are likely to suffer even permanent damage, the situation of winter crops, which should withstand the effects of the cold, is not promising.
\nDue to the freezing cold, supported by arctic winds, even savoy cabbage, chicory, cabbage and broccoli suffer the damages of frosts.
\nThese crops, which can handle temperatures of a few degrees below zero, are dealing with extreme temperature drops and even more violent frosts.

\n Coldiretti warns: the crazy climate has already cost the agricultural sector 6 billions in damages.
\nIf greenhouses should become unsustainable due to rising energy costs, anti-frost wind machines, with low-cost powering solutions such as hybrid or shared engines, could be the right weapon to fight frost damage on farmers\u2019 fields and thus protect their crops and their hard work.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
