This year’s heat waves and the decreasing amount of water caused serious damage to field crops, which can also be seen in grain yields. However, grapes are different from this point of view, as this fruit is good for heat. True, there are still 1-1.5 months until the harvest, so anything can happen.
Hungarian grape growers entered this season optimistically, as there were no major frosts in the spring, and the months with little rainfall at the beginning of the year did not cause any damage to the plantations. However, the drought rewrote the scenario, as the grapes develop differently than usual due to the heat. It is also true, however, that as a result of the heat waves, certain pests and pathogens also avoided the capitals, so the grape growers had to use much less chemicals, who also revealed how they see this year.
