Extreme climate events have caused
over one billion euros in damage to Italian agriculture so far
in 2021 due to lost production, farmers' association Coldiretti
said on Tuesday.
It said the events linked to the climate crisis included cold
snaps in spring, drought, floods, tornados and hail downpours.
It said these events had decimated a wide variety of harvests,
with summer fruit yields down by half with respect to a normal
year.
