Europe’s fruit farmers are concerned about their harvests due to unexpected frosts during spring.

The cold weather has led to worries about the food supply in Europe. Balkan countries have experienced a sudden drop in temperatures, causing snow and ice. Fruit farmers in Croatia and Poland have suffered losses due to the frost, with temperatures reaching as low as -8 degrees Celsius in some areas. However, Dutch farmers have found a solution by spraying water on their fruit trees, which creates a protective layer of ice that helps keep the buds warm. Despite these efforts, heavy snowfalls in higher altitudes have caused challenges for drivers.
