Germany is in the throes of a scorching heatwave. For seaside resorts, it’s a boon. But farmers fear massive crop losses and demand billions in aid.
High temperatures across the country – good news for some but a disaster for others. The scene is almost apocalyptic on some of Germany’s farms: burning grain fields, dried-up soil and withered crops. In some areas, nothing is growing at all any more, while animals suffer in the dry heat. Home gardeners have been desperately watering their plants while city authorities are calling on their residents to water the trees in the streets. Barbecues are banned due to the risk of wildfires in many of Germany’s city parks, and fireworks displays have had to be canceled. And there seems to be no end to the sweltering heat.
